values clarification

n. 1. (education) (also called “decision making”, “values based education”) coaxing the young student to abandon traditional morality and develop his own moral code from scratch. The wisdom of this approach can be seen in the rising popularity of such laudable activities as childhood violence, computer hacking, contempt for adults, homelessness, and illiteracy. See moral_relativism, situation ethics.
