The Greatest Generation, the Baby Boomers, and the Failure to Teach Values | Ultimate Issues Hour
from Timeless Wisdom with Dennis Prager · host Salem Podcast Network
In a thought-provoking episode of Timeless Wisdom, the speaker delves into the intriguing question of how a generation can produce a generation with such vastly different values. The speaker reflects on the Baby Boomers, who grew up in a time of great social change, and wonders how they ended up with values that are often in stark contrast to those of their parents, the Greatest Generation. This episode explores the idea that the lack of articulation of values is a key factor in the shift in values. Dennis notes that the Greatest Generation didn't do a great job of teaching their children what they stood for, and instead, relied on their children to pick up on their values through osmosis. However, this approach didn't work, and the result was a generation that rejected many of the values of their parents.
