Actually, yes. The new recruits we get into the Army are already “hard-wired” with both good and bad types of behavior. Of course, as usual, we don’t focus much on the good types of behavior except to reward it occasionally when it occurs. More often, we focus on the bad behavior because that is what causes problems and takes up so much of our time as Leaders. We spend 90 percent of our time with the “problem” Soldiers and only 10 percent of our time with those “good” Soldiers that have acceptable or excellent behavior. Why is that? Is it possible that we are now getting recruits that have been pre-programmed by American society? Of course it is!

Take violence for example. According to Abelard.org “The average American child will have watched 100,000 acts of televised violence, including 8,000 depictions of murder, by the time he or she finishes the sixth grade (approximately 13 years old).” Pretty startling, huh? Bet you didn’t know that. Think about your own children in today’s permissive society where television serves as the “great babysitter” of children.
