Same.

All my kids use their manners, work hard at school, honor rolls, never been in trouble, and put that extra work in to get ahead.

I hear all the time kids as young as 12 swearing right in front of their parents,. Last week one 5 year old said to his dad.” Hey you are a butt face” The woman next to the kid said , “How cute is he”

Cute, what is cute about it. He should be told to not talk to anyone like that , let alone his own dad. BTW Dad laughed and gave him a ball to play with while he carried on talking to this woman.

If your kid has grown up getting in trouble, not getting along with people, no manners and in my view if you are a conservative and your kids turn big liberals then you did not raise your kids , but instead let others like the TV, school raise them.

I see that in scouts with one kid. It happens because the kid's father allows it - a kid bullying his own father....sometimes when you think you've seen it all.

Kid tried the same thing with me, once. (just once. :-) ) It was on a camping trip. I drew the line in the sand, approximately said that it wouldn't happen again or the kid would be going home and that was that. No more problems.

Kids love discipline, and love to know where the line is. Parents should be parents, and not best friends - that's where generations (starting with baby boomers, I think) began to fall down.
