here is another example

Here is an article I found about a student and her MOM attaching a school teacher:

“ATLANTA  —  Atlanta police have arrested a high school student and her mother in the beating of the girl’s teacher.

Forty-four-year-old GeorgiaThornton and her daughter, 17-year-old Sequita Thornton, have been charged with attacking Felecia Williams at Southside High School on February 28th.

According to a police report, the mother was charged with battery on a school teacher, disrupting public schools, criminal trespass and theft by taking in connection with the attack. Sequita was charged with battery on a teacher and disrupting public schools.

AtlantaPublic Schools spokesman Joe Manguno says Atlanta school officials have also permanently expelled the girl and ordered her to pay $500 toward the teacher’s medical expenses.

Williams said Tuesday she had met with Thornton previously to discuss Sequita’s grades and sporadic attendance.

On the day of the incident, Williams says the pair walked into her classroom during class and began arguing about a book. The teacher says she asked them to leave, but the mother pushed past her and grabbed a book off her desk. According to a police report, when Williams tried to get the book back, the mother pulled the teacher’s hair and threw her to the ground. Then the mother and daughter stomped on the teacher.” – Fox news

 

Good parent influence, Just one example of why kids act the way they do these days.  Good up bringing starts at home!

What has gone wrong with kids these days?

Have you noticed a change in how children as little as 8 years old and up have changed over the years?  Now I am not talking about all children and teenagers. It seems to me that there is a vast majority of kids that have no respect for anything. No respect for authority, No respect for adults, no respect for property, and no respect for themselves.  What matters to them is what is on Youtube and Myspace. How to become famous and what to do when there bored and not infront of the video games and internet. Back in the day kids hung out and played sports or tag or a varity of other things. We did not have Internet, 500 channels on TV or cell phones. 

For example, I live in a community in Florida.  In the past year we have had kids vandlisze our community pool over and over again where it is not even enjoyable to go to.  Here is a list of what has been done: Sawing off the legs all of the chairs and lounge chairs. Throwing picnic table in the pool. Breaking thru the fence to get in the pool because they don’t have a key. Destroying the bathrooms by throwing shit around(literally), taking out the toilet and sink, Leaving drug needles and breaking the bathroom doors. Don’t kids have something better to do then screw with the pool the is suppose to be enjoyable for over 300 houses. We are now having to close the pool early and actually have residents kick people out. They get treated with abuse, language and treats of violence.  This is not how kids are supposed to act. They are supposed to respect property and adults.

Where does this come from? Parents? Peers? School? 

I could go on and on but I will start there… I welcome any thoughts.

p.s.  I am not an old fart. I’m a 32 year old man that was just brought up decent and I don’t want my investment ruined.
