Of course, morals and values in Indians are degenerating.

It is the youth which very well epitomises this situation in India. Every child just thinks of his own gain at one point of time. Morals and values have just become words that exist in dictionary with no definite meaning.

Teens abuse their parents, insult their parents, betray their parents and disrespect their parents.

So yes, values and morals in Indians (especially teens) have degenerated. (exceptions excluded).

The only reason here is not foreign attraction but the INCREASING COMPETITION. As people have become so competitive they don't celebrate festival with heart, the reason they celebrate is to show off, my statue is more decorative, big and all that stuff. The people responsible for this is as usual HUMAN GREED FOR POPULARITY yes Its NOT MONEY it is also a way to gain popularity.

So it nothing to do with foreign attraction it only a way to gain popularity. The disease is in our mind not foreign culture.

It is evident that kaliyuga is defined as a time where there people let go off humanity, values. Values are those rules which become a foundation of an evolved person. Something which realizes a person of the path he took, it may be diabolical or ethical.

But we are born to follow ethical, moral values because we are from the origin of ethics, no person is born as a daemon, but he became one and why is he a daemon because he didn't follow the ethics he was born with.

This proves that somewhere, somehow one approaches to this values even if he doesn't want to follow them, every drunk person determines to drink everyday but dreams of being sober. And if not, he desires death.

Because he knows that its wrong. Some rules are never meant to be broken. Values are the ones which binds us to realize our value of being here, now, today and everyday.

Hi,

I feel the same as most of us in the group feel that moral values are degrading these days the reason behind it which I feels is the parents and the teachers are not playing their role properly. Morale value get develop at the age of student, everyone thought us that we should not the feeling of other, pay respect to our elder and may things but there action doesn't shows the same.

When the people around a child is not morally correct then the child will also do the same. So fifthly we have to be the change what we want to change in the world so that the next generation will learn good things form us and follows it.

There were so many opinions shared I could not read all of them all I would like to say is that, yes, There is a cut-throat competition and yes, You have to agree with 'survival of the fittest'. But it doesn't makes sense that just because you have to survive then others have to go extinct. And actually, its not modernity that kills morals, it is our vague attitude towards social glitches that kills our morals.

I will not talk about how kids are brought up these days or about the bad influences that affects kids these days, all I would like to point out is that, we are paying a hell lot in our daily life due to this lack of moral awareness and if we don't change our attitude towards these glitches then we are in for paying even more badly.

Thanks.

Well, friends I think along with other measures we can utilize our Holy books in order to sensitize our students in schools for social and moral values. References of quotes and thoughts of our great leaders of humanity, in education can be of great use. I am in favour of referring general social and moral values from all the Holy Scriptures irrespective of religion it is related to.

Yes moral and social values are degrading. We are so selfish now. We should bring the hidden morals up. The future, the students should be careful.

Hello everyone,

This is Jitendra Kumar,

I also wanted to conclude some view on this topics.

Parents and society which are solely responsible to imparting the moral value and ethics which are very important to everyone to have some dignity and responsible life. Which are also responsible to make every one the man of value.

As we also know that Moral Value & ethics are so called big words which are not easy to understand until we all never drop down our self ego, selfishness & so called fantasy life.

Values do have different meaning for everyone which could be described in many forms or terms like life, Respect, Responsibility, Relationship, Honor, dignity etc. Yes this is also true that these value are degrading day by day which are making the every section of nation weaker.

Adoption of some good thing from the individual culture of the nation is really good thing but sacking of these value we drop down your won culture, ethics and moral values etc. Which are not good at all.

Moral value and ethic are the most precious ornament for everyone. So, do respect and impart these value & ethics in to your next generation to make them Man of the value.

Jai Hind.

I am really satisfied that we can not blame youth for the degradation of moral values. These are taught by our parents and elders. Also media, networking sites, education system etc. Well since childhood boys are taught that that boys never cry instead that elders must taught them that never to make anyone cry.

So I suggest before claiming anything they must see and give a proper reason for what they neglect to say their words.

No they really are just not. We are only looking to that part of the society which were never moral or did anything based on moral values. We just need to see the correct perspective of our society and we will surely get the real Indians, the United Indians.
