Telling Someone Elses Kids to Be Quiet

[Colchester Kev]

This shows why our country is going down the shitter, now I am only 30 but when I was a child I was taught to repect adults in any form, if I gobbed of to them I expected to be told off. I think this is totaly fine, kids generaly worried about what the parents will do because due to being such a nanny state now they may give them a few minutes on the naughthy step or threaten to take the wii away, I am sure if there was still the thought that a teacher, copper or just a adult other than the parent was going to disapline them we wouldn't have so many crimes and troubles with the youth of today.

Whats going to happen in 10 years? these little shits that are hanging around on corners with knifes and guns at the age of 10 because its cool or they feel they have to because of there own safety, these rats are going to be the parents and how will they treat/ raise their little rats? bring back maggie, bring back the cane and ffs bring back some bloody common sense to this country.

lol, comedy post of the year so far.

Its only Feb, but I agree .... that will take some beating

Kids may have had more respect for their elders in days of yore, but there's another side to that coin.

Having less respect for your elders isn't always a bad thing. Makes life a lot more difficult for the MikkyT's of this world.

Unfortunately there are more instances of child abuse from within the family, as in the MikkyT case than actually from strangers. And it's considered that a lot of cases don't come to light due to the family connection.

wow...I never even thought about making that link....and still don't know whether it makes any sense to do so.

So you're saying that peadophiles had it easier in the olden days when kids respected their elders?

[thetank]

I don't know about sexual abuse, but I've heard it said in conjunction with physical abuse in educational and religious enviroments.

[The Camel]

I'm sure sexual abuse on kids went unreported aot more in days gone by.

I'm sure sexual abuse on kids went unreported aot more in days gone by.

...which could also be down to the reasons Tank mentioned...

Or still does in countries governed by medieval laws.

I don't think you'd find many paedos willing to travel back in time and give up their Bebo.

Yes, because nothing says "respecting your elder" than letting them have a little fiddle.

Really...does anyone seriously believe that kids disrespecting their elders will lead to less child abuse?
Of course it went on in days gone by...and Yes, it was probably kept quiet more (at least it wasn't in the media every other day, and it was probably not reported to the police as often as it is now...people also probably dealt with it their own way)..but I think it's probably safe to say it went in just as much as it does now. So the argument for it being a good thing that kids don't respect their elders as it leads to peadophiles not being able to do their thing is surely a false one?
Peadophiles can either kidnap a kid (and a young child can say "Fuck off, you perv!" all he likes when thrown into the back of a van...so the disrespect thing not really helping there) or he can groom a child...win their trust etc. etc. in which case the kid would start to respect him....or he's (and this is MUCH more likely) in a position of power/authority already and the child starts to be abused from a young age (or at least prepped for it)...in which case the "disrespect " thing also doesn't hold.

Honestly...the link is spurious at best.

You're not wrong there...peadophilia seems to be an international thing now...don't think you had that much in the olden days.

The thing is of course that kids should respect their elders but taught to question authority...unfortunately tis line seems to have been crossed somewhere.

kids should respect their elders, society's changing, it's not like the olden days etc etc, i agree with all that but fail to see the correlation between a less than enthusiastic modern day mum and a stranger talking to someone elses kids uninvited, it wasnt really the question, everyone's pointing out ridiculously obvious things like: "kids should respect their elders", it's the mums fualt, kids should be good, really? kids should act good and stuff? wow!! some people on here should write a book, think how we'd progress if everyone knew this revelation? why hasnt this been released into the public domain? "kids should be good" wow, impeccable insight!!!!! you've all dazzled me with your astute comprehension of parenting in sociology, sigh! if she wants to raise her kids to have no respect thats up to her, she has the right to bring up her kids like that if she wants and no interfearing stranger has the right to tell her(least of all her fucking 6 year old kids) any different!

If a kid on the bus is making noise you've got every right to tell that kid to quit his noise. Course you have. Anybody who sits through that bus journey getting pissed by the kid and not saying anything is very dumb imo. You've paid the fare so you can speak up. So the guy had the right idea but his strat was bad. If you talk down to the kid you risk the wrath of any protective mom/bolt passengers, and the kid will probably tell you to fuck off anyway. You got to get down with the kidz to get them to do want you want. You see, if it was big dudes making the noise instead would that guy have used the same tone & attitude? So it's the guy's tone that's the problem, not the request.
