[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since becoming a parent, the one thing that I have completely changed my mind on, and about which I have no doubts, is that there is very little correlation between parenting quality and child behavior. You have the privilege of having three easy children. [/quote] I completely disagree. Children’s behaviors in schools have collectively declined. The difference isn’t some biological shift that happened in our country. It’s a change in parenting. Parents expect much less of their children and allow them to have bad behavior without consequences. Since teachers now can’t use consequences either, kids aren’t respecting their elders and it shows in school, even the most experienced teachers who know how to manage a classroom well are having trouble. We can’t throw the towel in, we must be better parents. [/quote]
