What "destruction and violence" are you talking about? No neighborhood I visit or have lived in is rife with "riff-raff," and kids are still mollycoddled door-to-door.
Are you wilfully ignoring the actual thread of context we're discussing? I was replying to your reply to the following:

Good night.
