[quote name='help1']Javeryh, how old are your children? From what I understand, they are all really young, which explains why you think parents are the sole factor of whther or not children turn out bad, since you are able to control every aspect of your children's lives. Yes, parents are responsible, but only to a certain extent. Parents can't possibly rule over every aspect of their child's life, which is something you will learn as your children grow up.[/QUOTE]
I agree and disagree. If you establish good morals with your child at an early age, the effects of your parenting will continue through the child's actions throughout their lifetime. As a parent, if your children respect you, they will likely make decisions in their life that are consistent with the moral fiber established in their upbringing.
This was obviously not the case with this 911 call. This lady was crazy and likely straight out of the hood. I didn't hear her mention between the "mother
ers" anything regarding his upbringing, but I would bet a weeks worth of foodstamps that this lady's son was not the product of sound parenting and go double or nothing that she was smoking crack when she made that 911 phone call. Also, parlay that the son was smoking crack, too.
