[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]hands down, the parents. as a parent myself and not a teacher, i am convinced many parents are not teaching their kids how to be empathetic, community oriented people.[/quote]

Yeah, I feel this too.

There are also some parents who just have no idea what they are doing and their kid will have a problem and the parent will do the exact WRONG thing to try and solve it, and you just have to stand their and smile and not tell them how dumb they are being. The biggest thing for me is the parents who never criticize their kid's behavior no matter how bad it is, and then give into everything the kid wants. You see these kids throwing giant tantrums, saying rude, selfish things to peers and adults alike, and the parents just stand there either oblivious or embarrassed but no ability to step in and just say "hey, cut it out." I mean, dont' scream at your kid or make a huge thing of it, but if one of my kids is rude or unkind within my eyesight or hearing (which absolutely happens because no kid is perfect), I correct in a firm but pleasant way. It's not that hard. My kids are also fine with it because they are used to being corrected on questionable behavior so when we do it, they don't freak out.

Some parents will just stand there doing nothing while their child is a nightmare and it makes me want to scold the parents. And they don't get that not only are they making the school environment worse for everyone, but it will also impact their kids socially as they get older and no one wants to invite them over or the other kids don't want to deal with their BS.[/quote]
