He feels that the root cause of all social evils is lack of ethical values which should have been instilled in the children when they were young. It is because of this they have an identity crisis and have no clarity of their roles in society and their set of values. Keeping in mind the different needs of an infant, a kid and a grown up child is sometimes not easy even for their parents to recognize in the hassle of earning bread and butter.
