[quote=Anonymous]Lack of respect for older people or those in position of authority. I grew up with a military officer father, mostly with friends and classmates who were also military brats. To challenge an adult was just never done, period. In fact, I can’t even imagine arguing or talking back to any adult who called me out or complained like in your example. Honestly, it would have been, “Yes, Sir. Sorry.” Then all my friends would laugh and I’d turn beet red and probably be so embarrassed that I’d cry. That’s how things were handled. I’m in schools and am absolutely shocked at the subtle and overt rudeness that even younger students display to me or other adults.[/quote]
