Do you ever feel like parents are becoming less and less responsible for raising their kids and the raising ends up being done by schools, parents of friends, programs, etc.? Do you think this has much of an effect on children or does it matter who raises them as long as they're raised right? |

I'd rather them be raised right, as opposed to raised wrong. There are too many parents out there who really shouldn't be parents. There are parents out there doing drugs with the kids in plain site, there are parents who abuse, there are parents who frankly don't like their children. At least with the child in school, kindergarten, pre-school programs they can be happy and be taught by people who do care. |

you know, there is nothing new about bad parents. If anything I would think there are less bad parents than there were a generation or two ago. Now first time parents tend to be older. People who don't want to have children have other acceptable choices. And people can now have sex without having children. |

I know in my family my parents were strict on a lot of things when it came to me and my older sister but for my younger sister she can pretty much do what she wants. She has called my mum a ***** right to her face. I don't want to say my parents are bad because they aren't. I just see how soft they are getting and she gets away with everything and she knows it. I think now a days there is a lot more suing and bickering amongst parents that shows they do want the responsibility to reside with the state. But I also agree with wissaboo that bad parents are always gonna be bad parents. I really do have mixed feelings on this subject because it is always the kid growing up and then telling everyone their parents made them this way. Has anyone ever asked themselves that maybe that kid was just a douchebag? lol
