There was a lady who's child had been murdered being interviewed on TV a couple of nights ago, and she blamed the government for taking the power away from the parents, and handing it to the children. She wasn't exactly right, but then again she wasn't exactly wrong either. Children now are ill disciplined, badly brought up, and overly indulged; end of story. While I don't advocate corporal punishment to excess, or for it's own sake, it DOES still have a place in disciplining children, and others. Until parents are made TOTALLY responsible for the behavior of their offspring, feckless and irresponsible parents will continue to impose their nauseating offspring on the world. Giok
