I'm sure I could do a satire about bad parenting being responsible just how I made fun of sports being more dangerous than video games, but, like most of the people in here have said, it all boils down to the parents and the environment the child grows up in, everyone in here is capable of making his or her own choices, if they aren't receiving a reinforcement of the punishment for their actions and learn to take responsibility for what they do, then that's where I believe the downward slope ends and the cliff begins.
