When I was growing up, everything was whatever mom and dad said and nothing more. Kids have become more and more spoiled and bratty by the minute. It's because parents just want them to shut up so they over indulge them and let them have whatever to keep them quiet. Again I'm not a parent, but am a keen observer. Not good parenting skills.

I agree, we knew where our boundries were and what the punishment was going to be if we crossed them. Many of todays kids are so disrespectful to authority figures because they get by with it at home. And for those who say it is no one elses business, I disagree, those are the kids that cause the problems that the rest of the children have to endure.

Discipline starts in the home. Monsters are raised, not born.
