Do you think pop culture changes more slowly these days? It seems the more technology we get, the less pop culture evolves. I mean, isn't 2009 just like 2000 almost as far as pop culture, music etc? People still can't get enough of Britney and Eminem. You still feel as if the 90s just ended a couple years ago. For that reason even as far back as 1990 could almost be classed as contemporary. In 1985, nobody would have EVER considered 1966 to be contemporary!

Are parents depending too much on pop culture? I have read countless comments about the pregnancy of Jamie Lynn Spears, and the adverse effects that it will have on the throngs of little girls who look up to her. My question is, what's the big deal? Is it not the parent's responsibility to serve as role models to their children? To explain right from wrong, and distinguish fantasy from reality? Does this not present an opportunity for parents to begin a dialogue with their children about the importance of being responsible? Or are some parents depending too much upon pop culture to serve as role models, instead of taking the initiative to serve as role models themselves. Thoughts?
