Forums - General - Are people around you becoming less grateful?

Namely public spaces that people share. Such as parks, public transit, streets, etc.

A few examples.

People don't bother taking their trash after themselves and opt to litter instead. Such as coffee cups, McD bags, news papers, food wraps, etc...

People spitting on sidewalk...

Vandals, self explanatory.

It could be my fuzzy memories playing trick on me, but I seem to remember the city used to be clean.

 

It's so often that I see despicable sights it's really sad.

Do you stop your friends from littering?

If you're refering to your own country, you may be right. However over here in Romania that type of behaviour is (sadly) the norm.

And yes, I do stop my friends from littering (I actually slap them whenever they do that).

Around the Network

People around me are usually polite. I rarely have trouble on my commutes to or from work, and i haven't seen a lot of spitting (fortunately. that grosses me out like few other things do) or random theft

I don't know how it is where you live.

I can talk about Buenos Aires, a huge city in which I live (not for long, I hope) and that is out of scale, with transportation problems, lots of poverty and criminality.

I can tell you how about a week ago two armed guys pointed at my head as I was about to enter to my apartment where my baby daughter and my beautiful wife were waiting for me at midnight. I was threaten, I was beat and I was robbed, but somehow I manage to convince them not to enter to my apartment, for my baby girls sake.

I can tell you how grateful I am that they left without harming any of them.

wow that sounds terrifying,good job on keeping them from your girls

sometimes i think we will all need to carry a gun,if someone is threatening my girls i'd kill them
