in Psychology ·
Lately, looking objectively at my friends, family, and society at large, I can't help but feel that morality is in a steep decline—especially among the younger generation.

But getting back to the point: how do we actually foster moral development? What is the core essence of morality, and why does it even matter for a person to have it?
