As I took a dog walk around the village yesterday morning I noticed egg shells littering driveways and egg splattered windows. Many were the bungalows of our local elderly folk.
I am linking this thread into the 'lies and remorse' thread and some of the opinions on how much we should control our teenagers and young people.
I felt myself getting really angry that parents were unaware that their DC were out and about committing acts of anti social behaviour.
How do we get the discipline and respect back if we don't recognise the need for 'control?' I am using this Mischief Night as an example. Giving our DC too much independence before we are really sure they are capable of making the right choices is surely a failing as a parent?
IMO we need to be more responsible and return to a more controlled and disciplined environment.
