ugh if i have a kid im never gunna raise it like that

btw, be very proud of yourself for having alot of respect for your parents, there are only a few of us in the world

Answer 3

i see alot of parents letting their kids get away with being rude and disrespectful.

they don't discipline them or bat an eyelash if their child is rude.  they let them do and say whatever they wish.  the outcome is the the 17 yr old telling his parents to shut up.

Answer 4

I am an adopted mother of 14 children and I have fostered over 100 other children within an 18 yr career as "MOM". ( I only assist "troubled teens" or Pregnant teen girls) (When I was a younger woman I fostered only small children) & I must say that the government has taken away many many parental rights, this is fact!

Yet I must reply to this thought that an "involved" parent, one that really pays attention and makes it a rule to remain in their children's business, will unknowilngly guide those children to a respectful future.

It is amazing how a young person can learn respect and not even realize this is the lesson before them! If you are blessed by small children and babies, then you start this as soon as possible. The little ones learn everything from what they see, they absorb everything like little sponges and if they witness disrespect then this is how they will react.

Only Natural for a child to "monkey see, monkey do" sort of mimicing.

Raising children today, though more difficult, does NOT have to be horrible or impossible! Good Nutrition, healthy activities that lead to productive and exciting exercise (this does NOT mean Wii or any other electronic device), With limited time in front of those 300+ channels on the television, some sort of a belief system, bold structure and clear boundries (that NEVER change), and respectful, kind, happy adults will maintain the proper growth and nuturing for a sucessful and happy young adult!

I did not learn this in a book, rather, I have been taught by (i hate to admit) trial and error with the many children placed in my care!

Instead of wasting our time trying to place blame on the laws and government maybe we as parents should take a good long look at ourselves and our own value systems and decide if these are the exact beliefs we wish for our children to carry forth.

If not, we should make a change within ourselves and if so, fight like crazy to remain now and forever in our childrens business and ultimately in their success!

I am the luckiest person in the world to have been able to be interactive with soooo many children, I have to commend you for your youth and ability to see things for how they are in so many area's of todays world...I send you and your parents the very upmost respect as they must have been involved in your life enough to help you have morals and consideration for others.

I appreciate and applaud their hard efforts. I will not minimize all of your hard work either, because at the age of 16 it is much easier to follow your peers and their guidance instead of that of your parents. Kudo's to you and to all of your future success's!

Answer 5

Not a lot of kids are raised to respect their parents these days.  When I was growing up, my mom would kick my a$$, for being smart or disrespecting her in any way.  Grounded for life.  A lot of it has to do with not being able to discipline your children, they call it child abuse now.  It doesn't matter if its a swat on the hand or a knock down drag out saturday night fight.  Parents are so busy trying to be their kids friends, they forget to parent and then they suffer the consequences.  I am 38 years old, and would never even think about talking to my parents or my grandparents or even any of my aunts and uncles the way most young people talk to these folks today. I hear my younger cousins talking crazy to their folks, I always tell them I will kick your face in if i ever hear you talk to my grandmother like that again, she isn't your dog, she is the woman that pays the bills, washes your clothes, cooks your meals. You better appreciate what she does for you because the woman that gave birth to ya never did it when you were in her custody...All kids need to appreciate everything that is done for them.  If you don't like the rules get the h**l out on your own, and do for yourself, when i was 16 i  thought i knew it all too, and if I knew at 16 what i know now at 38 I would still be living at home with momma living by her rules.

Answer 6

I see disrespectful kids everywhere. I think they're like that because there parents don't discipline them enough. What did that mom do when the 17 year old said that? She most likely didn't say nething, or do nething...that's why that kid yells at her and stuff, because he doesn't get punished that much for the bad things he does. Same with all the other disrespectful lil brats hahah! Either they are to spoiled, not disciplined enough or there parents are disrepectful so that's why the kids turn out like that.  

Answer 7

We don't see anything different on the Simpsons either.

THis current generation does not have any respect for anyone let alone themselves. Consequently, they are headed nowhere because one day, they will find themselves being disrespected by another generation.

There has been a real big disconnect and a discord b/w the parental influence and the children growing up. We are all too busy and too pre-occupied with our own things that we do not spend adequate time together as a family. This current generation has also experienced the highest divorce in history and broken families only lead to broken individuals.

It is no wonder why there is a lack of respect. There is a lack of discipline in the home and school.

Answer 8

hopfully it is only a stage.they are in there angry stage , mostly because they dont understand or try to understand anything. my daughter , in her teens, couldnt tell me the time of day without sounding like i just killed her cat or something. it drove me nuts. she called me stupid , did nothing i asked of her and litterally drove me out of my own house on occasion with her bit.... and complaining.

she grew out of it. she remembered i was always there for her and she could talk to me about anything and now she is a responcible wife and mother and we are best friends.

Answer 9

Some parents want to be their kids "friend" first and then parent.  You should express to your friend how you felt hearing him talk like that.  He may act like it doesn't bother him, but if he thinks highly of you he may have a second thought about it.
