though i do miss the old days where teachers could beat of kids if they did something wrong, thought them a bit of respect. Most parents nowadays don't spank their child. No wonder kids are turning out like that. A good smack around the head is the best thing you could do for a child. | ||

The kid the bus driver hit first wasn't even the one causing the trouble. And you can't just hit someone because they mouth off at you. | ||

They are kids. Plus they would settle down for time being and learn no lesson. But they probably didn't in any case. I can't wach the video because WMP is being gay but I think that North American upbringing these days leaves much to wish for ... it's too lenient and the society is soft. There are lawsuits for touching people etc. I know in Russia if you grow up being a little shit you'll get your face broken many a time and nobody will care. | ||

![]() its because they were never educated, their parents were never educated either, and you can't really expect savage white trash to raise kids that aren't, well, savage white trash and what's worse, the only people that could put these kids in check (school authority) literally have NO power whatsoever, since it has all been stripped away. the kids do whatever the hell they want because they know they can get away with it ( see in the end of the video the kid tells the bus driver "you're going to jail" ) school administration is a joke, suspension/expulsion is meaningless since the parents could care less, even worse some parents actually think their kids are in the right in these situations (like in this case, the interviewed attorney says the kids were "victims", victims my ass they are hooligans) the only thing these retards respond to is physical violence, and administrators can't deliver, their hands are tied the kids have the power and they know it. | ||

When there are a lot of little shits, they need to be disciplined. It's just really a shame that our CULTURE CONDONES being little shits. Of course from someone's perspective "what you consider being an asshole seems fine to me, don't oppress your views on me you racist fucker" | ||

I was jogging another day, and two kids of probably the same age as in the video start harassing me. Screaming "jogger" "gogogo left right left right" staying in a certain spot aruodn the track field that I constantly passed. First time I ignored them hoping they would stop, second time I got annoyed and asked them whether they needed something from me. After a while I just told them that it must have been long since they had their face broken and they ran away threatening to "call my dad" | ||

The kids did something absolutely stupid for no reason whatsoever ... the bus driver did something explainable, if arguably inappropriate, when he was purposely made considerably upset. That's the difference | ||

It's not the driver's responsability to take education to the next level and his actions are not justified. Beeing arounds kids that age all day long requires a lot self control and maybe knowing how to aproach certain situations. P.S. I was insane when i was a kid too. XD | ||

Its because of things like this that stupid ass hoodlums go around thinking they can do whatever the fuck they want. Good job saying you would beat up the bus driver, he finally had enough and those stupid ass kids got what they deserved, their parents are obviously fucking morons. Saying that you won't respect "elders" because of your low life dad only further continues the cycle of violence and ignorance among the youth. By "respecting" them that does not mean you need to bow before them and kiss their feet, just do not be unreasonable and rude, seriously its common sense. | ||

That bus driver is man who probally dosn't get paid enough to deal with those kids. He asked them to put on their seatbelts - I've never had a bus driver ask me to do that - to care enough about my safety to do so. The guy didn't hit the children, he had to do something to control them because things were getting out of hand - he was left with no other option. The kids, on the other hand had two options, put on their seatbelt or punch him. They deserve to be prosecuted. | ||

the bus driver should be able to hit the kid (so he would fall on the floor - people learn that way fast) how can you discipline such little fuckers? maybe he walks around the class and cusses teachers too - they cant harm him - so they throw him out of school and what happens to the kid next? he goes to some sort of school for criminals where he can't be disciplined too and even meets friends - to form a gang? I think that he should be able to hit that kid, just like in Korea. Of course it cant be abused, but seriously what are the options in such situations? if I were the judge I would only punish the driver if he really hurt the kid or something (holding someone, or a single hit - isn't harming someone.. in such situation IMO) "These boys are the victims and they have been from day one," Kirshy said. "The fact they got arrested was a mistake. That's clear." rotfl yes the society harmed them people survived the war - and behaved in a good way... | ||

Once again, how is it ok for a 66 year old man to act violently towards kids? Did the kids ever put their hands on him before the bus driver put hands on them? And he had plenty of other options, none of which had to involve getting physical with the kids... Were the kids rude? Yes Were they disrespectful? Yes Were they out of line? Yes But so was the bus driver, and if he cannot handle kids goofing off, or kids being rude to him, then perhaps he shouldn't be driving a bus to begin with. | ||

You say that the bus driver was not acting like an adult, seeing as the kids did not lay a hand on him. But they were making a little riot, acting unbelievably stupid for no reason other than being full of themselves. Why does bodily punishment exist in the first place? Why do kids at a very young age get smakced around? It's hard to sit down with an infant and make him understand the basis of morals and ethics and why this and that is wrong. There are some things that cannot really be taught in other ways, or very very hard... such as common sense. It can hardly be explained ... the last time I was hit for discipline was when I was 4, maybe 6 years old. And From that young age, my common sense would not permit me to act the way those kids do. Those kids are acting like an infants; they are obviously a failure on their parents' part. It more or less makes sense to deal with them like you would with an infant PS Heh, Solsito, I called this incident a "riot" too before reading your post ![]() | ||

theres definitely something wrong with those kids when they think they can get away with anything, abusing others etc. Someone has gotta stand up for themself eventually and teach kids like that a lesson. I think a certain level of physical force (like restraint?) should be considered an acceptable defense against verbal abuse. Fucking lawyer calling the kids victims... | ||

I don't think violence is appropriate, unless inflicted upon you first. The bus driver should have stayed passive as long as the kids didn't directly disrupt his driving. In the case of disruption, the driver should stop and let the kid off the bus. Very simple logical rules. The driver could use the camera tape against the kids, by banning them from the schoolbus or similar appropriate punishment. I have a brother at the same age as those kids, who uses abrasive language when teachers abuse their power. Although in a more sophisticated way, he points out how bad his teachers are at doing their job and how badly they've failed in life. Its the only way kids can "hit back" and I think its fine as long as they uses it as a response. In this case though, it doesn't seem like the bus driver was abusing his power, but rather that the kids were "shitheads". | ||

i blame weak ass parents for stuff like this... irresponsible parents who don't know how to raise a kid :/ hell, my parents have basically let me make all decision myself since i was small and i've turned out just fine... it's because we treat each other with respect and understanding, the parents of kids like these probably just yell and scream at their children all day long when they do something long, so they enjoy the whole rebellious act, pissing off others... | ||

HOWEVER what i intended to say was that they handle discipline differently GENERALLY than say a northern parenting couple from Beaverton Oregon. In florida its more typical to find a parent or adult who figures if a kid is being a jack ass he will get hurt. Is this 100%? Of course not, is this a rule? Of course not. Is it possible t find this ANYWHERE ELSE? of Course it is. Im making a comment on a stereotypical belief that is generally true.

And do you honestly think the deputy was going to teach them a lesson? Or the school board? Do you really think the kids are afraid of being suspended or expelled? Do you really think their parents will care enough to make a difference? The next time they feel like pissing other people off, are they going to restrain themselves out of fear of punishment, because of what the deputy, school board, or their parents did to them (if they did anything at all)? Hah, yeah right. At that age, there's only 3 things that are going to prevent those kids from misbehaving: empathy, conscience, and/or fear of punishment. Obviously no realistic action is going to teach them empathy or develop their conscience (who would make the effort to do it, if it's even possible at this age?), so the only option left is to leave them in fear of the consequences. And taking action the way the bus driver did is the only way to instill that fear. Remember, a LOT of people will be impacted by these kids as they grow up. Raising a little shit into the world will cause hell to a lot of other people, and may even cost some people their lives (e.g. drunk driving). For the good of the people that those kids will interact with in the future, I say they need to be punished, in a way that will make them afraid of screwing up in the future. Unfortunately, our pussy laws prevent this from being done effectively, but at least the bus driver gave it his best shot (without using excessive force) and may have left a lasting impression. These kids NEED to be traumatized: they need to fear the consequences of pissing other people off. At their age, it's the only way they'll learn. | ||

Getting them out of the bus for refusing to put on a seatbetlt is a perfectably accepted punishemnt. Also sending the videotape to their school to be reviewd by their parents.

I think Radu's right. The kids should be disciplined by being forced to do something they dislike (i.e. get up early and walk to school) by higher authorities. Why not violence instead? Because the kids are also going to learn how to "discipline", or more appropriately, how to deal with people who piss them off. The more we use violence to discipline them, the more they will use it against others. The same goes for appealing to a higher authority, except I think we can all say we'd have fewer problems with the kids doing that instead of using violence. So, as much as we loved seeing those kids getting what for (my only regret at the time was that he didn't kick the kid's ass), the bus driver probably should have waited for the deputy (sedating himself with the thought of the kids having to behave or else walk to school from now on) and had him escort the little brats out of the bus. What if the parents, school, and police fail, like some undoubtedly do, and don't take enough action against the kids? What if the parents simply drove the kids to school from that point on, never teaching them a lesson? What if the bus driver has had to put up with their crap for a long time? What can he do? Maybe a little bit of violence was the answer, if only to draw attention to the situation and force the parents and the school to deal with it. I really don't know: I'd have to think about this some more. | ||

Or are you saying that because you think it would have led to the best outcome in this particular situation? I'm not clear on the American laws that are relevant in this situation. In Denmark the laws somewhat resemble my opinion of this matter. In other cases, not. As you may know, there is close to no crime in Denmark - about ½-1 homocides a year. The laws in Denmark prevents you from abusing your physical power upon a child, but on the other hand, nothing really happens if you do. Unless, its an extreme case of violence. You won't get sued out of your ass. We have alot of "you are not allowed to do X" laws, but there is no penalty for actually breaking it. Our society, relies heavily on pragmatism. While this may seem highly controversial, you can't argue with the low crime rate, that is a result of it. There are a couple of reasons it works out better here, though. For example, the high welfare, free: insurance, medical help, education, right to vote. Voting is considered a citizens duty, and people who don't vote are "frowned" upon(it is very easy to vote, you get a voting ticket in the mail and you use it at the local voting booth). Everyone has a chance in the society, even if you are a pedophilic alcoholic, there is a program you can attend(for free). There is a cultural difference, but in the end we all just want to be respected. It is the kids right to express their opinion towards the bus driver, as long as they don't interfere with his driving, as it is the bus driver's right to express his opinion towards them. You can do what you want, as long as you don't take that freedom away from others. When the kids calls the bus driver a "fucker", and he gets mad, its his own problem. | ||

Type 1 teacher has the ability to keep the kids quiet with out even trying it. They got the tough look and normally talk the student down in the first day. Students hate him but dont dare to provoke him because he looks ready for the kill. Type 2 cannot control the students properly, he's usually the kind of nice person but abit dim. His face isnt so serious so that student think he is an easy person, and he normall does not take it hard on them in the first time, so the student take it further and further till it's hard to keep them inline anymore, so he has to use some physical stuff to retain order. Type 3 They are intellegent and humorous, use forces correctly every time and students like him. He is able to nullify the disrespectiful ones from getting out of hand and is able to treat the other nicely. He makes the student actually see the value of his position and student respect him out of respect. Type 4 They are weak and feeble, unable to do anything but lecture or perform their duties, might be a good teacher of student keep in line. But once student gets out of hand, there is nothing he can do about it but to keep talking while no one listens. All four can be found in your past hopefully P.S I think Harry Potter the book use them pretty well too... | ||

Same situation, middle school / high school classroom. Rows of desks. Florescent (sp?) lighting. Slackers, nerds, normal kids, failures, etc. Kid in the front row is talking, disrupting everyones learning, being disrespectful. Teacher goes over to the student, tells him to be quiet, puts work in front of him. Kid in the back row starts saying stuff. Teacher walks back there to discipline that kid. Kid in the middle row stands up right by the teacher and says "Hey motherfucker..." Teacher grabs the kid by the throat and throws him into his seat, classroom goes into chaos. I don't know about Florida but in Michigan if the teacher grabbed that kid by the throat and threw him into his seat, he/she would be fired no question. The teacher had other choices just like the bus driver had other choices. The bus driver already called the police, the teacher could have called school security. If the 12-14 year old doesn't get scared driving home in a fucking cop car, the bus driver sure isn't going to scare him by grabbing him. Bad parenting? Definately. Bad behavior? Yes. Do they deserve to be slapped? Yes. Should the bus driver have slapped them? No. Anyone ? | ||

Even though it was wrong for the bus driver to beat up the kid, I would have done the same thing as him in that position. The bus driver's reaction to the kid was totally understandable, and in a perfectly fair world, both the kid and bus driver would be punished, the kid getting the more severe punishment. But that's just how I think of the situation. | ||

On the other hand, if one of those kids physically attacked the bus driver first, I don't think it would be that big of a problem. The reason I say that is because there were many of them compared to one 66 year old bus driver. They might be young, but a group of them could have seriously hurt him. If this were the case then I think physical restraint would have been about his only option in order to defend himself. The fact of the matter, though, is that all they did was verbally abuse him and he used physical force against them... force that I feel wasn't necessary. Sure the punk ass kids deserved it, but I feel that there are better ways to have solved this. Now the bus driver's lack of judgement may cost him his job. | ||

1. cod apparently you were the only one to struggle with my post, result in Washington public education, i dont blame you, it will pass. 2. You guys act like their was a serene bus ride, and a child made a boo boo on the rules, so the bus driver grabs his throat and slaps him. Try, TRY TRY to visualize the world i paint for you. The bus driver is alone, out numbered and to old to physically handle a bus of hoodlums. One kid REFUSES to comply with the bus drivers request to OBEY THE LAW and buckle. The other kids begin to chime in and escalate the situation (watch the video). The bus driver repeatedly asks the child to comply, using verbal requests. The bus driver than PHONES THE COPS typically the gravest punishment a kid can receive (in their mind). The kids continue to escalate in movement and disobedience, tension mounts. The bus driver decides words are not working and moves to the back of the bus (this is in hind site a mistake, he shouold have waited for the cops, however moving to confront the kid isnt wrong in itself it was simply unnecessary) to confront the antagonizer. A kid he cannot see jumps out of his seat behind him and shouts "HEY MOTHER FUCKER" i dont know how many nerds here have been in an actual chaotic/fighting situation but when someone behind you shouts "Hey mother fucker" its never to share pringles. The bus driver (66 fucking years old, hes from the vietnam era where people didnt listen unless their was a gun in their face) snaps. He is outnumbered, he is frustrated and he is risking losing complete control of a bus of kids w ho have already displayed they lack any care for rules. He grabs the kid by his throat (one of the most powerful submission moves possible) and slaps the kid. He could have choked him had he wanted to inflict actual pain, he could have closed fist punched the kid and knocked his face in, instead he uses complete submission moves, slap to daze and throat grab to force surrender. Once the kid was subdued and began crying like a bitch, he released and backed off. Was the kid hurt? No more than a brotherly fight. This wasnt a situation in which thought out and meditated responses were engaged, this was a heat of the moment decision that a 66 year old man did, i believe he was fine to do as he did. The next time your old, your bones creak and you cant get a boner. Remember this, if you are outnumbered by younger and out of control kids, what will u do? If one jumps up behind you and makes a threatening scream, you going to turn around and ask him to please sit down? Or you going to pre emptively pacify a situation that could escalate to god knows what. | ||

might teach them not to misbehave towards the guy who hit them, but not on a general level. I am extremely opposed to how the busdriver responded regardless of whether the "kids deserved it" or not. | ||

I can tell you korean parents are 100x less respectful for hitting their children. parenting has it's flaws everywhere, definitely among american parents as well. but disciplining kids through violence is wrong. period. and you shouldn't confuse respect with fear. if I know a guy will beat me up if I call him a fucker I won't call him a fucker. but my reasoning is not that I respect him, in fact I would completely lack respect for him. | ||

its easy for us to download a clip and make comments whats wrong whats right blah blah but that guy would have been under a lot of pressure, being there being him is very different and i think everyone has a boiling point and i guess he reached his and about using violence to discipline kids, for some people there's no other way, they wouldn't respect the teachers/elders anyway but at least have [edit] them [edit] under SOME control with fear and if a kid was a good kid then violent methods of discipline wouldn't be an issue | ||

besides, parental respect isn't the same as literal respect anyways is it? it's like parental love. it is just assumed. it's taboo not to have. you have it as long as you are willing to pretend to. it's not a feeling and it's not earned. so in that way, violence is consistent with this still. i can't even imagine what life would be like if i actually did feel love and respect for my parents -- or worse, if they had earned it. | ||

The kids should be disciplined by being forced to do something they dislike (i.e. get up early and walk to school) by higher authorities. Why not violence instead? Because the kids are also going to learn how to "discipline", or more appropriately, how to deal with people who piss them off. The more we use violence to discipline them, the more they will use it against others. The same goes for appealing to a higher authority, except I think we can all say we'd have fewer problems with the kids doing that instead of using violence. So, as much as we loved seeing those kids getting what for (my only regret at the time was that he didn't kick the kid's ass), the bus driver probably should have waited for the deputy (sedating himself with the thought of the kids having to behave or else walk to school from now on) and had him escort the little brats out of the bus. What if the parents, school, and police fail, like some undoubtedly do, and don't take enough action against the kids? What if the parents simply drove the kids to school from that point on, never teaching them a lesson? What if the bus driver has had to put up with their crap for a long time? What can he do? Maybe a little bit of violence was the answer, if only to draw attention to the situation and force the parents and the school to deal with it. I really don't know: I'd have to think about this some more. It's a KID. The busdriver shouldn't give a FUCK what that kid is saying, when the kid said whatever he said, he should just have looked at him, walked back to his seat and called someone to get him off the bus. Simple as that. The fact that what some little kid said to him got to him so bad, IMO, shows that he is pretty damn insecure for his age :/ And for all you people saying "Oh this is all because they don't get spanked". Wrong. This is because nowadays parents don't have the time to raise kids AT ALL. | ||

In Finland, School shootings/stabbings happen ... once in 20 years? Iam happy to think that here teachers dont have to fear kids carrying weapons and in the meantime I can see just in the busdrivers actions.. Does that really make sense? I mean if he grabs the kids throat, and the kid's got a knife.... Didn't he just put himself in a situation where his entire body is 1 inch away from a potential knife? | ||

You do realize that your last line is COMPLETELY different from the others =[? | ||

But that's just how I think of the situation. .... There is a reason why we don't put kids in jail, especially not 12 year olds. And that reason is that most of them are too dumb to realize what they are doing -_- Now, if someone behaves like that towards someone of a similiar age, I wouldn't care if he got beaten up, but I would expect this guy, who's 66, to be able to ignore this asshat and just chuck him off the bus... He's 3 times his size, AT LEAST. All I could think of watching that video is that I wanted to jump in and hit the busdriver over the head. You do NOT grab a 12 year old (or 15 year old whatever) by the throat because they called you a motherfucker. | ||

when i was younger and misbehaved my mom would hit me, pull hair, ect. same with step dad, one time i broke out in a fight with him i got my arm and leg cut up. physical violence isnt the answer. trust me i still live at home cause im still a "kid" (17) but i want to get out of here so fucking bad. its funny tho, how my parents are fucking cowards. when i was younger theyd hit me for being bad, cause they know i couldnt/wouldnt do anything back. now when im older i do something bad (like the time i pulled a knife on my step dad for threatening me) they always are like "GO AWAY, DROP IT OR ELSE WERE CALLING THE COPS ON YOU!!". so yah, physical violence really wants to work, i mean it was used on me and im "so well behaved". all it made me wanted to do is kill them both. on the other hand, my grandmother used a respectful way of teaching, she used to sit me down and explain to me what i did was wrong and why i shouldnt do it, she never put a hand on me, and always showed she cared alot for me and until the day she died i had the utmost respect and care for her, heck i woulda pretty much did anything for her. my mom/step dad on the other hand (like i said) id like to see shot. | ||

Rows of desks. Florescent (sp?) lighting. Slackers, nerds, normal kids, failures, etc. Kid in the front row is talking, disrupting everyones learning, being disrespectful. Teacher goes over to the student, tells him to be quiet, puts work in front of him. Kid in the back row starts saying stuff. Teacher walks back there to discipline that kid. Kid in the middle row stands up right by the teacher and says "Hey motherfucker..." Teacher grabs the kid by the throat and throws him into his seat, classroom goes into chaos. I don't know about Florida but in Michigan if the teacher grabbed that kid by the throat and threw him into his seat, he/she would be fired no question. The teacher had other choices just like the bus driver had other choices. The bus driver already called the police, the teacher could have called school security. If the 12-14 year old doesn't get scared driving home in a fucking cop car, the bus driver sure isn't going to scare him by grabbing him. Bad parenting? Definately. Bad behavior? Yes. Do they deserve to be slapped? Yes. Should the bus driver have slapped them? No. Anyone ? No. In the bus, if students continue to act up, it becomes a danger for the driver, students, and cars around. Plus, I have no problem with beating the shit out of 11 year old stuck-up pricks who think no one is allowed to touch them. What the kids did was very wrong but the driver wouldn't have been in danger if he had waited for help or made the kid leave the bus. The students weren't in danger except of getting home late. The cars around weren't in danger because the bus was parked. If you have no problem with beating the shit out of eleven year olds who think no one can touch them (which is most of the eleven year olds in our country) that's your opinion. The fact is that in our society when an authority figure (teacher, preacher, adult) hits/grabs a child they are in trouble 99/100 times wether the kid deserved it or not. The 66 year old bus driver knows that and still, even in an intense situation, lost control or consiously decided to act that way. I think that's wrong. | ||

I think that they're used to being controlled by dictator like parents at home, parents who maybe resort to physical violence sometimes. These kids are repessed by force at home, but whne thye come to school no such force exists. So they act out and rebel because they can get away with it. Whereas at home their dad would kick their ass. | ||

First of all, I will say that I do NOT agree with how the kid in the back acted in the first place. It was stupid and disrespectful. Now that that is out of the way...What did the first kid that the bus driver "ruffed" up do? He was sitting there watching the driver get up and it looked like he tried to move his feet out of the isle or something when he was basically SLAMMED backwards into his seat and pushed into the side of the bus. Apparently not moving out of the way fast enough for a 66 year old man on a rampage... When all of you keep saying how it was only the older kid throwing punches, OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES!!! The only reason that kid acted was because the driver was storming threateningly towards someone easily 2 feet shorter, and probably 150 or more pounds less than him. From the way the driver stormed up there I was thinking that he was going to tear that younger kid apart!! The older kid acted as anyone in his position should have. He protected all those around him who would have had NO CHANCE IN HELL against a man that size! And if you will pay attention, it's the BUS DRIVER WHO PUT HIS HANDS ON THE KID FIRST!!!! All the kid did was jump up and get the man's attention the only way he knew how. He cussed. From there, instinct took over for the kid. After being thrown and pushed back further into the bus and temporarily being strangled by the man, as soon as he was free he launched a punch to try and defend himself. After several more seconds of man-handling the teenager, the man hears a page on the radio and hurries back to his seat. The kid's behavior was rude and uncalled for, but they are just kids!!! ALL KIDS CUSS!!! Get used to it already!! By the time they are in 4th or 5th grade they have already learned the majority of words and phrases commonly used in cussing from their friends and PARENTS!! They grow out of it in time, through growing up and regular life experiences. The reactions of the driver were UNFORGIVEABLE!!! He had no right to lay a hand on any of those kids after he had already called for reinforcements from local police. As an ADULT, he should know how to control himself. None of the children were threatening ANYONE, let alone other children or even the driver, so the law that allows "hands-on discipline" in case someone begins threatening someone else does NOT apply to this man! All in all this man, and ALL of you who support what he did, you all make me sick. Discipline should be left in the hands of the parents. NOT in the hands of some RANDOM bus driver who can't control his temper worth shit!! | ||

Rediculous and stupid may seem to mean the same thing separately, but when put together rediculous changes to something like "amazingly" or "incredibly".

There's a clear line between discipline and child abuse. Discipline - to "educate" or "correct" a child when he/she/maggot steps across the line. Child abuse - using a child as a punching bag. Yes the driver should've been more responsible. But those kids took advantage of his position as the "bus driver." If those kids would've walked up to a full grown adult and called them a "fucker." I doubt they'd be simply "beat up." I mean the bus driver was what? 66 years old? To cuss at someone of that age/generation, that just goes to show how "well behaved" the kids were. Let's just let them be, next week we'll have kids killing the bus driver and it'll be a okay. I mean come on, it was in "instinctively self defence." Please. Edit: Yes, I'm being sarcastic, just in case you think otherwise... | ||

You say he's 66 as if that would make what he did right. I say he's 66 meaning he should be mature enough to just not give a fuck and deal with it in a RESPONSIBLE way. He's 66. Not 16. | ||

I think its also sad that this way of thinking is getting very popular in Japan these days. My parents were very strict like most Japanese people are with their kids and I never hated them when they beat me. I love my parents very much and I am thankful that they taught me right from wrong. These days Japanese parents are so overprotecting of their kids that its almost like american parents. Its sick and parents need to parent their children, not be their friends and lie for them to get them out of trouble with schools or the law and yes I know this is not just american kids. Actually the most horrible kids I've met were some Swedish boys (I guess about 10-12 yrs old) that were dressed like Harry Potter characters. They were staying in the same hotel as me and they were basically tearing everything up and their parents did nothing. I felt like choking them if kids are our future, they need to learn to follow their parent's good example. Unfortunately I don't think there are many good examples left for children to follow these days | ||
