Tell me about it. I walk my kids to school everyday and walk along side these girls between the ages of 9-16, and they look like grown ups.
Very young girls in grade school wearing those mini skirts, the ones with no shorts underneath just sitting on the grass. Like, what are they asking for trouble?!
If you've ever been to Canada you know how cold our winters can be. Girls nowadays go out dressed like its summer time. I asked one young girl, maybe about 14 or 15 who was wearing a short skirt, no jacket or sweater in the middle of winter if she was cold. She said yeah. Then I asked her why she decided to dress the way she did when she knew it was winter outside, and she just stared at me like a deer caught in headlights lol
The boys of today have no respect for anything or anyone just like you said. We have a family living next to us with three kids ages 15, 13 and 8. My kids play with their 8 year old son, and he's a little trouble maker! lol
He thinks we're not kool cause we don't buy our kids i-pods..? He's 8 years old!
The closest thing my kids have to that is a gameboy lol. Their 15 yr. old son is a bugger
He's loud and he doesn't give a crap about anything. You should hear the way he speaks to his mother..
We live in a pretty nice neighbourhood and on a beautiful street, and right down the road is a high school. And just down a bit further there is a 7-11..
So, all the kids from that school go there for lunch and eat on the way back. Along the way their all dropping their garbage on people lawns. This really gets me actually, cause I see all the people working hard on keeping up their property to make it look nice. Then you have a bunch of kids every single day throwing their trash all over. AND there is a garbage just a few hundred feet from the store they can use.
Sometimes I say something , other times I don't cause there is no point.It goes in one ear and out the next.
I totally agree with you, kids of today are out of control. It's not like back in the day when we'd get a good whoopin' with a belt on our backside.
Today the law is there to protect the child. However, if your child ever tells you their going to call C.A.S on you for whatever reason, hand them the phone and tell them that they will take THEM away. Not you.
I remember being a little brat and threatening my parents with that, and thats what my dad told me. They take the child from his/her home and place them in a more "suitable" home. I had it very good as a kid but I wanted attention and I tried to get it the wrong way. Just like the kids of today.
But I got a good smack on the ass. Parents today are too scared to punish their kids probably because they never have. When a child grows up on discipline, they learn it. But alot of parents today work to much..but they have to to pay the bills. And usually both parents work outside the home, so the kids are left alone pretty much to raise themselves. So what do they learn?
Everything you don't want them to.
