There are some areas where privacy is expected[ Parent ] (none / 0) (#28)

There are areas, even in public, where courts have confirmed a person can expect "reasonable" privacy. One is changing stalls of fitting rooms. Others are public restrooms.

Stores have been sued and employees arrested/prosecuted for violating these "reasonable" areas.

Society has created a class of people, through advertising, TV and other media outlets, that says its okay to take what you want. The criminal mindset is "I'm okay, you're not okay" and that is how some justify their behavior.

About the only way to start to reverse the problem is to find a way to get parents to raise children with good ideals and morals. If the parents do not have them, then it becomes difficult for the child to see or be better, though not impossible.

Peace,

[ Parent ]
