This has been made unclear since at least the time of Rousseau since he himself sired a number of children he flipped off to orphanages since he didn’t want to take care of them, since he was either a narcissist or a sociopath. Thus, “society” is what you lean on when you are irresponsible, and which in practice means depending on the tender mercies of a power elite who use taxpayer money to buy votes, and thus to get the power they need to take de facto kickbacks and bribes.
Compassion is a necessary virtue in others for the irresponsible.
His family failed Trayvon Martin. That is precisely why they are so mad at everyone else. The mirror can be a painful place to look, and God knows they have plenty of help shifting the blame everywhere but where it belongs. I don’t blame Martin for reacting in predictable ways to what was no doubt a very unpleasant environment. I would say until about age 25, in our culture, kids are direct reflections of the work the parent(s) did or (in all too many cases) did not do.
