[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It has gotten much harder. We put our kids in private schools that emphasize kindness and have classes on morals and ethics. And of course you are the main model - so be kind! [/quote]

The people with no morals or ethics are typically the most successful in business.  Right now we have a president with no morals who is taking money from leaders of corporations in exchange for whatever they need.   Elon Musk has no ethics or morals.  Finance heads are never satisfied so they create Ponzi schemes.  Michael Milken and Bernie Madoff famously stole billions from thousands of people who trusted them.    They broke a lot of people and didn’t seem to be bothered by it.

And who can forget Jeffrey a Epstein, the worst kind of unethical person lacking any kind of ethics or empathy.  He was a billionaire although no one seemed to know how.  He committed crimes with a woman whose father stole his employee’s pensions.  He attracted powerful people around the world.     Our leaders.

Parents are the role models.  If they are all about making a lot of money instead of living an exemplary life that’s not good.  [/quote]
