Regardless of whether or not you are a parent, you have a vested interest in the future generations of this country.
What are things you feel the youth of this country should be taught before they reach adulthood?

How to live within their means financially.
A person who enjoys their job even if they aren't making a lot of money is much better off than one who hates their job despite making a ton of money.
A 5000 watt per channel stereo really isn't necessary in your Honda.....

You should take pride in your work/education.
Money does not solve all problems.
Priorities in life are important. You can't do/be all things and expect to be happy, well rested, and respected.

You said all of your neighbors were old. How else are they supposed to listen to Paul Harvey?

As an adult, you do not need to have someone's love to make you whole; there is a lot to be said for being single.
Brush your teeth three times a day.
If you're tired, take a nap.
Forget about credit until you're 35 and understand it first, even then.
Close the windows when it rains.
Get to work on time, work hard, don't complain too much, things are tough all over.
Keep your vehicle neat in case someone unexpected rides with you.
Buy lots of underwear so you always have some.

...Don't wish your life away  . Don't think "if only xyz, then life would be perfect"....
...Treasure each day as precious, as every day that passes is one you don't get back.
...Live every day out loud.
...Enjoy yourself immensely  .
Ok, so I'm a different kind of aunty

the history of the country and the sacrifices that were made by many for our freedoms.
serve the community around you, make the place you live better because you live there.
Don't be one of the problems in the area, be a solution.
Always remember you parents when they get old.
the world does not revolve around you, but you can make the world a better place.
never stop learning,

1. get over yourself. immediately.
2. credit cards are for imbeciles
3. having kids isn't like buying a hampster. responsible parenting is beyond your comprehension. have sex when you are ready to have kids. at 30.
4. nothing nothing nothing comes easy. be prepared to pay the price or be prepared to do without. in fact, you better just learn to do without.
5. The best things in life are definitely not things. things can not and will not evah make you happy. do not lie to yourself. things will not make it happen.
6. Don't wish it away. It's not coming back.
7 Honestly, honesty is the only way.
8. Eternity means forever. get a clue.
9. The Lord truly is your shepherd.
geeze, i could go on. but i'll stop, sorry.

I want today's youth to learn tolerance and not hate. Enjoy how different people are, and embrace them for it--that's what makes the world go 'round.
And, one other thing....practice birth control and safe sex.
