Okay, the first time he interrupted me by screaming "I didn't jab you!" whould have been the end of that conversation as the back of my hand would have been across his mouth! We would not have continued that conversation until he could show the respect required to have that conversation. I don't understand what's wrong with parents my age who have kids the age of this boy. I know that the parents were raised better because when we were kids, we DID NOT talk to our parents like this and I will NOT allow my boys to talk to me this way. Yes, I am more lienent with my boys than my parents were with me on some things, but I will not tollerate disrespect to me or anyone else! This also includes your environment, peers and material goods, not just elders. Why do kids at a baseball park, THEIR ballpark, think it's okay to throw their trash on the ground? tear up equipment? disface buildings? No one tells them any different when they do it. They must assume someone else will take care of it...not my problem. My oldest son is in middle school (8th gr this fall) and I'm on the PTO so I'm around large groups of this age group of kids a lot and I have never seen such disrespect on such a large scale in my life. Parents who do not keep close watch on their kids school work and social life should be ashamed of the way their children act in public...I'll bet they would be shocked to know how they actually act and treat others. But back to the clip, this boy needs help with his anger and a good lesson in respect for his parents and other adults as well as peers (or a good can of whoop-ass!) and the Mom should have put her foot in his ass a long time ago...she won't be able to change this situation with out some outside help at this point...he's too old now. Good luck with that Lady!
