RizzyKing. When I was young....gosh did I really type that.

My Primary School was mainly OK when it came to the behaviour of the pupils. Parents in my neck of the woods were pretty strict, it was a working class council estate, and there was not to much money about to materialistically spoil a child. At senior school there was peer pressure and as to-day it had it's bad side.
What we have now is the addition of a lower age group of children out of control and that's the scary part of what is happening.
TheNorm. Yes I agree, to call the parents, of most of these out of control children, bad is too easy. It's not the parents that are bad so much as their parenting skills that are bad. We all want our children to have good memories of their childhood, we want them to have the best possible childhoods we can give them: but, I fear for the legacy we are handing them.
