Morals & Values among Indians is Degenerating

I think that moral values help us to develop in some matters which we cannot do in the way we do today. Our country needs reorientation it is lost and needs a map.

Moral values are an essential past of our culture and by not adopting these moral values, we destroy our culture. A country's first impression is it's culture and by neglecting moral values we neglect our culture and by neglecting our culture we neglect our country.

According to me today there is degenerating in values because the harmony before modernisation we see between person to person is so mutual but the modern world has broken this mutual cooperation among the people due to many facilities in education many have become selfish and think of 'I' MYSELF now people don't allow to grow others rather they compete with each other. So here is lot of changes in their values.

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.

Moral values are the set of principles for right and wrong conduct. I think that today's moral values are degenerating. It is because we are highly fascinated by western culture and adopt such habits which seems outlandish for our Indian society.

I do agree that moral values and ethics are degrading due to the cut throat competition and 'survival of fittest' type of attitude. But they still prevail though under a veiled.

When we were young we were told stories about the honest woodcutter, cricket and the ant, and poems of goodness and truth growing up we realized that straight trees are always cut first in the forest, so we have to be a bit selfish.

But if roots are firm then nothing will make much difference. So children should be given the right type of education, they should be told about our cultures and values. The foundation must be strong!

Hello,

I disagree. If we need to go anywhere in today's day and age, intellect must trump illogical emotions and values. Its every man for himself.

Hi, One ad is running in media in which we are seeing how to cheat father. Is this way to fulfill our requirements? Is it right? Our media is creating negative influence through the children. How can they gain the moral values? We cannot control them to see the negative advertises. It will creating a distance between children and parents.

What I think is, Morals and Values in Indian social system in not degrading but it's form is changing due to Globalization, changing social dimensions, increasing professionalism, changing family structure, changing work structure, increasing individualism.

And changes does not mean degradation, old phenomenon of good and bad changes, moral and values also changes. So we should not apply old definition of morals and values to today's worlds. I am optimistic who thought that world is changes and it changes for better.

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.
