In my dealings with todays youth... thru school and work I would agree with the results of the survey. I don't think they are scientifically correct... but I do think they are close to accurate.
I believe in general the kids today are of the opinion that they are not responsible for these kinds of actions. The parents don't or can't do anything to correct it. The teachers/coaches/principals can't really do much about it. So why not do it.
I've actually caught kids in the act of stealing at the store I worked at. I mean watched them tear off the tag put it in their pocket and walk out the door. I stop the and call the police and when the parent gets there to pick them up they refuse to believe me and swear their kid would never. We would take them to court press charges and get a conviction the whole time the parents are saying we are lying and their kid would never.
I can see it now getting ready for a date pants are just a bit snug... do we pick something else. No grab the stretcher. The guys waiting for the girl and she's yelling just another minute the're almost dry. No wonder guys think girls take forever to get ready.

I think parents are mostly to blame.
