Why can't people teach kids respect?!

Twang'em into trees!
I will admit: I've held myself back on reading this thread...I did start by reading the entry that began this thread, but I chose not to respond because all I could do was *sigh* and think: I spend a lot of my day teaching kids respect...and they're not even my own children. :sobstory:
(I honestly don't have my own kids yet, either, because I'm too wiped out by the children of other people...!) :nope:
All I *can* say, though, is that I force myself to keep this in mind: one bad apple spoils the bunch...but there are dozens of kids out there to make up for that bad one (or three!). And it's cute: my students will tell me how they take home the "lessons" I teach them & try to teach their parents how to be more respectful...though I love it best when they teach each other. It can happen.
It's nice to have hope.
