I'm sure you've all seen the talk shows. Maury, or Jenny Jones, with all these wild and destructive kids. They smoke, they steal, they assault people...just about everything they can do to cause total chaos and get into trouble. The parents seem to think that possibly a talk show could get them the help they need, because their kids just aren't responding and listening to them.
Well, whenever I see these shows, I'm usually in total disbelief. The parents are so stupid! They say their kids do drugs, and alchohol...and skip school...and all this other crap, well, I ask why??!?! These are 8, 9, and 10 year olds we are talking about here. Preteens. How can the parents not control them? I understand that it could definitely be a hard job, but in my eyes these parent's are simply un fit. They don't give any sort of structure, so they don't have control. I simply don't believe the kids are to blame in most cases. Of course they cause the trouble, but the parent's CAN control them. I believe it all relates to how they teach.
So...there's my opinion, now I ask you. Are the parents to blame? Or are the kids simply bad?
