Meh, a lot of this stems from the fact that kids these days are stupid little fucks that are influenced by tv and seem to think they can do and say whatever the hell they want and get away with it. I see 12-13 year olds walking around like they own the place, smoking\drinking and whatever. I see them shout abuse at older people and victimise others just so they can have some kind of image in their friends eyes.

I was born in 79, and in my way of thinking, people around my age have a lot more respect for people than the teens of today, when i was younger if i said something wrong or done stupid shit id get a talking to or a slap round the head. And therein lies the problem, parents these days are too fucking pussy to do that kind of thing.

If kids were brought up better they might not be influenced by the tard element so much. These days its all about image, its "cool" to do drugs its "cool" to run about the place pissed out of your mind. Kids need to learn doing whats "cool" or "in" is not always the thing to do, but usually theyre easily swayed by their friends and do it because they do it. Like a bunch of drones that can't think for themselves. And because of this teens a whole get tarred with the same brush.

In conclusion, i think parents mould their child, maybe if parents today would actually lay the occasional slap on their kids when they do wrong they'd grow up with a bit more of a clue.
