Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager. This is really my house. This is not a set. If it were a set, I

as I often tell you, it would look, I think a lot nicer. A lot beater at Dicer. So this is my home.

This is what a lot of guys who come in here call my man cave, but it's not really my man cave,

even though it has cigars. God bless my wife. She sits here with me all the time while I write,

we talk and I smoke my cigar. She has no problem with it. She hates cigarettes. By the way,

talking about a cigar. For so many of these, I smoke the cigar during this fireside chat,

but for reasons that are perplexing to me, we're not allowed because what was it? The YouTube was

out of what it was. Facebook, Facebook, what are my bad example for America's youth?

God, to think, to think about what now constitutes good example or bad example,

that the the decency of a person is like a non-issue, but do they smoke a cigar?

Is an issue. Oh well, anyway, I just want you to know I miss it. Many of you miss it,

but what can we do? So anyway, it's a chance. It's completely unscripted. It's a chance for me to

spontaneously talk to you. Take your questions spontaneously and just get to know each other a little

better, but it's a little at least to be more honest to get you to know me a little better and

what makes me tick. So I always begin with a subject, and then I take your questions. So today's

subject, courtesy of Megan, works for Prager You, how old are you, Megan? 25. So she had a

very good question. How come there are so many parents whose kids have different values,

even antithetical values, especially in the case of traditional parents like specifically,

traditionally religious Americans? Whether they're Catholic or Jewish or Protestant, evangelical,

Mormon, and their kids have contempt for religion. Why does that happen? Where so to speak, did the

parents go wrong? Or for example, parents who love America who believe in its essential values,

Epluribus Unum, and God, we trust and liberty, and their kids have contempt for those values as well.
