Get rid of recess & extracurricular activites, where the kids learn actual social skills (in favor of continued teaching to the test), and I guess this should be an expected next development. Shameful.

Yep, and beyond organized sports we also had Smear the Queer and King of the Hill to get out our anger and learn valuable skills for coping in our dog-eat-dog world. I hear kids today aren't even allowed to play dodge ball with slow pitch softballs anymore.

Not quite certain if you're serious.

Math scores will be plummeting when the new tests based on Common Core roll out over the next few years. At least initially they will. It is more based on total concepts and word based problems than straight computation. We have introduced some work books based on this to our younger grades and parents are not fans.

Disrespectful assholes.

Only thing that has really changed is the electronics and the family structure. Thought process doesn't change too much.

Family structure is a major change. There aren't many "parents". They've delegated that job to grandma and other friends and family.

And teachers/coaches at some schools.
