Socio-cultural values and beliefs are crucial for the maintenance of law and order in a society. They are passed from the older generation to the younger ones. Therefore, there is no gainsaying that much is expected from the younger generation. However, with the current societal trends, showing high levels of moral decadence with youths at the vanguard of vices like kidnapping, cultism, internet fraud, drug abuse, rape, robbery, and money laundering, among others, it then becomes inevitable to check these societal ills. This paper, thus, seeks to review the state of moral decadence in our present-day society with the aim of proffering workable solutions, particularly by looking at the roles of women as mentors to the youths in a bid to stem the tide of moral decadence in the society.
