What has happened to children respecting adults?
I remember when I was little that when an adult spoke to you, especially in a "your are in trouble" voice that I would quake in my boots.
It was "no, sir", "yes, ma'am".
Not anymore.
My child had an incident recently, where he was being harassed on the bus.
I admit instead of blowing it off. He just fed the fire by getting angry.
We had plans to go do something with this child on Saturday. Since the harassing did not stop, I cancelled the plans and told the mother why we would not be going.
So, this morning, I watched as not only did the harassing not stop but now his cohort continued it and disrespected me by sarcastically waving at me.
REALLY?! If you knew an adult was not happy with your behavior would you have continued as they were staring at you?
