Do "Stupid" parents rise their kids to be "Stupid" children?

Question

Example: Today while picking up my kids at their school this little girl who look like sh gt in the ugly line twice was spitting on the other children who were waiting and their riding --the teachers told the little girl to stop that it was not nice what she was doing when all of a sudden this ugly women come out of nowhere and jump on the teacher for correcting her ignorant child---i hate to call people ugly but her stupidity made her look like a gorilla in the mist.....everybody outside saw that her child was spitting on people but she swear her child did anything wrong ---and it wasn't a little spit either it was thick and nasty---

SO MY QUESTION STANDS WHAT DO YOU THINK!!!!!

Answer 1

Are your parents first cousins, or brother and sister?

Answer 2

They didn't mean to

they have other issues, hot tempers, and didn't know any better at how to become civil, self-disciplined or learn how to co-operate in society

Why did that kid spit so much?  What prompted that?

Answer 3

yea...its hereditary...lol

Answer 4

Absolutely not:

Example:

George H W Bush 41st prez: Very intelligent.

George W Bush: Current prez: Dumb as fu*k!

See how simple that was?

Answer 5

I THINK THE THE TEACHER WAS RIGHT AND THE PARENT WAS WRONG.

Answer 6

Um...ugly does not equal stupid...and it's not the kid's fault their parents can't teach them right. If they're really smart deep down then they'll learn from the examples of others.  

Answer 7

YES!!!

STUPIDITY IS A LEARNED BEHAVIOR

THE APPLE DOES NOT FALL FAR FROM THE TREE...

Answer 8

The kids probably act like that because they don't have no discipline from there parents!The parents just don't care so therefore the kids are growing up stupid,acting bad, and not listening. :)

Answer 9

Absolutely.  

Answer 10

The parent will always defend his or her child, No matter what they do

But that doesn't mean they got the examples from the parents, they might have got it from a relative or from anyone else

Answer 11

I think that's totally nasty and that it's the parents' fault about it. Just make sure not to worry too much about it. Maybe their parents are having issues,just try to stay out of the way.

Answer 12

Okay, where did you receive your education? You grammar and spelling is awful.

As for the parent jumping on the teacher, yes, she was ugly, no parent should allow an assault upon another person, even if it is spit.

Someone should stand up to for the teacher and that child should have been expelled.

Answer 13

yes because kids look up to their parents and do what they do. so if the parents act stupid, the kid will learn from them

Answer 14

i agree i think she gets her stupidity and looks from her mother

Answer 15

Let's remember that not all parents are responsible and wise. Some can be ignorant and dumb as sh*t. It's not entirely the kid's fault for spitting on other people, it's 25% of the mom's fault. She's probably so use to having her mom defend her for everything, even when it's completely wrong. Those kids, unfortunately, will never learn, unless someone else takes control over them, or their parents get rid of their stupidity and teach the kids what's right and what's wrong.

Answer 16

sometimes, and most of the time, because children see and children do.

Answer 17

I just pray that I can do a better job than some of the examples I've seen myself...

It's hard to blame the child when parents are not doing a very good job at setting an example.

Answer 18

I believe they do because kids look up to their parents, but everyone makes decisions on their own.  The parent probably didn't tell the girl to spit on people, but at the same time she didn't tell her not to.  

Answer 19

I don't know about "stupid",

But rude, ill mannered and inconsiderate parents probably raise children that are like them. Children learn by example, and the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Answer 20

sometimes, sometimes not.  

Answer 21

No, if their kids are not stupid, they won't listen to their parents. They'll have friends and do wut their friends do!

Answer 22

All parents lead by example.  Even whey they say "Do as i say, not as i do", they still give their kids that mentality that they in-turn pass along to their children.  

Also, it's a fact that when smaller children have problems at home, they act out at school and when around other children.  Blame their parents until the kids are between 15 and 21.  After that they should know better.

Answer 23

Well, my parents were stupid, abusive, and ignorant. I turned out to be quite the opposite.  

Answer 24

Usually.  The acorn does not fall from the oak tree.

Answer 25

Yes, they tend to follow the leader.

Answer 26

look at mitilda

Answer 27

Probally

Answer 28

No. While I do believe the enviorment you grow up in somewhat affects your manners and sense of wrong/right, it does not mean you will grow up to be "stupid" if that is what your parents are.

Answer 29

No because learning also takes place in the classroom. I really don't know how they would rise their kids, kids are not bread, but they might raise them.

Answer 30

it depends on if the kids listen to their parents or rebel and do better...so i guess the answer is not neccesarilly.

Answer 31

Its Either Peers or Parents Faults.
