The document discusses declining ethics among American youth based on various studies. It finds that many teens see nothing wrong with cheating, stealing, or dishonest behaviors. It attributes this to a cultural shift from self-control to self-gratification where ethical restraints are discarded. Studies show high rates of cheating, lying, and theft among teens and many feel no rules apply to their personal conduct. The document argues this "Values Wasteland" stems from changes in education, media, and culture that do not sufficiently teach moral exemplars or virtues.
