Customs are handed down from generation to generation. When families are split apart and there is no communication between the generations, then customs are not passed on. The anti-family culture that is promoted in the media leads many to feel that everyone is an island, and that there are no societal norms to abide. Sportsmanship is just another custom that is no longer passed down from grandparents to kids, along with civility, manners, respect for others and contributing to society instead of lining your own pockets.

The solution: Keep your families together, stop watching television, stop working three jobs so that you can keep up with the neighbors, listen more than you speak, kiss your family and tell them you love them every time you go out.
