I see soooo few that 'over parent' that it would be more refreshing to see more active parents. Not to say that over-parenting is excellent, but where I work the parents have sooooo many excuses for why thier child misbehaves, some do not believe thier child misbehaves, and some just don't give a rats ass.

So many of the children I come in contact with don't fear anything. I was sooo afraid that if I cut the fool that my mom would decend on me like armageddon, so I didn't do things to get murdered. lol I have seen for too many of my students talk back to thier parents/gradnparents/whomever that I don't expect them to care when they are in school or other public places. What is worse....the parents that misbehave themselves and laugh when thier children do it.
