Anecdote Of The Week: Are We Raising The Next Generation To Be Crooked, and Yet Expect Them To Be Straight With Us?

"A Shepherd once found a young Wolf which had been abandoned by its mother. The Shepherd took the Wolf home and cared for it. After a while he began to teach the Wolf to steal lambs from the neighboring flocks. The Wolf proved to be such a good student that one day he stole a sheep from the Shepherd's own flock.

The Shepherd reproached him bitterly. But the Wolf said, 'Was it not you who taught me to steal? If you teach evil, you must expect evil.'" -From, "Aesop's Fables"
