Someone once said that a human conscience is an extremely fragile construct and it requires support from institutions, family, and society to maintain integrity.

It requires a lot more to develop ethics, and it is not [just] the job of schools to do that!

I agree, with the bracketed addition.

Not quite. It's a youth full of indoctrination. School, religion, society, one's family, and of course, the company one keeps - which leads to me ask you this: What do you see as the primary cause of the loss of ethics in the past half-century? I blame the slow societal acceptance of unfettered greed.
