Re: Would these kids talk to or treat their own grandmother like this??
amazing! i find that vid very disturbing on all levels.
as a single dad, if i'd have heard my kid disrespecting anyone like that. the consequences would have been severe. not violent consequences either, that's part of the root of the problem too imho.
this vid is just proof of why we as people are gonna get a rude awakening in the form of cleansing of the planet. the parents of these children are teaching kids to be like this. it's gonna come to be part of our downfall too.
peace, love, respect, compassion for others is the proper way.
while i'm not particularly religious, one comment always comes to my mind when i see crap like that. do unto others as you'd have them do unto you. it's really pretty simple....
fwiw, my kid was starting to get out of hand when he was a teen. my answer was. my child had nothing. i took it all away from him, his room was bare except for a bed, dresser and desk to study on. he even lost his door (privacy). he went no where and no friends were allowed over. that went on for six months. a tough six months, but well worth it. my son came around in the end.
those kids could come around too with the right people teaching them. but obviously, no one is trying to set them straight.
I tend to blame the parents too.
i don't tend to blame them, i tend to put it all on the parents... they're (the parents) the teachers from square one (birth).
