Re: Would you admit on national Radio that you`re a rubbish mother?

Sadly I see a lot of that sort of parenting where I live. Kids from 4 upwards are still out playing late at night well after dark.
They start playschool at 3 years old and if they don't want to do something they F and blind at the playschool teachers and tell them where to get off in no uncertain terms.
This country is going to end up a scary place to live in 10 years or so as that behaviour is, it seems, the norm these days.
I blame the do gooders who made it illegal to give a child a clip round the ear if they are cheeky and discouraged parents from giving thier child a short sharp smack.
It never done me any harm and I have always had a lot of respect by being bought up this way.
If someone gave me a clip round the ear when I was out playing I didn't dare go running to my mum as I would have got another off her and been grounded.
These days if you done that to a child the parents would be on your doorstep to either beat hell out of you or with the police.
Sadly I think children rule this world and know it.

Because it's all about me, me, me, can't be bothered to learn about parenting, probably can't read or write either.

They sure do Denis, and while there has always been a small minority of bad parents I can't help feeling that the numbers are increasing dramatically nowadays.

Yes, this is what i call the 'Media adulation' thing, many poor and ignorant people think of being on telly or in the papers (for whatever reason) to be a good thing

And those that do should have to pass an exam on parenting and it should be hard too.

Ignorance is no excuse for poor parenting, get a book, read up on the subject, it is afetr all a complex one,.............oh sorry I forget many of these Mums (and Dads) can't read can they??

Typical

Interesting thread but also a sad one, personally I can't see any way of improving the situation, the media are so keen to jump on any parent who tries to impose discipline, the teachers are so scarred of the 'legal liabilty charge' and the general public dare not intervene when they see bad parenting, so what's the answer ?????????????
