Civics

Civics are the rights and duties of citizenship. The main problem that I find with civics is that people feel entitled to do lots of things they think they are allowed to do. For example, when we find someone's child acting in the wrong and we try to teach them how to be better people for the rest of their life, the parents feel entitled to be the only ones that are allowed to teach their children things. This also causes a problem with indoctrination. Since the parents think they are the only ones allowed to teach their children, they can teach their children only the views they think are correct causing their children to not be open-minded. You can see this very often in religious groups and cults. To spread the doctrine of the religion, the adults who believe in the doctrine convince their children that the doctrine is the absolute truth. This causes the religion to be passed on but causes the children to be close-minded. This has a somewhat implication that religion is false because if it were true the parents would lead their children on a never ending quest for truth.
Back to the topic of civics, it is a societies duty to try to make our world a better place and improve the living circumstances of our offspring. We should be nice to others like we would want them to be nice to us. The sooner we understand that, the sooner our world will reach utopia.
