Over the past few decades, America has seen the come and go of various trends, and with these trends, our morals have been changing as well. This brings up the question of whether or not they have changed for the better. It may be hard to believe at first, but the morals upheld by today’s society have definitely proven to be better.
In the past 30 years, teen birthrates have declined by an average of 44 percent. The total number of adoptions has also increased by six percent since 2008. Even the national crime rate has been halved since 1990. You may not like the morals of the upcoming generations, but you cannot deny the positive effects they do have on society.
It may not seem so at first glance, but some of today’s morals have definitely changed for the better.
