text: generation of misbehaved kids? today i was in a restaurant and when a little boy didn't get his own way, he hit his mother. he was about 6 yrs. old. the mother told him not to do that again, and that was it. he got up from his chair and she ran after him. i couldn't believe my eyes. i know what i would have done if that was my child! awful! some kids are just terrible.  and yes i believe that there is a generation of misbehabed kids.  in my class there are sooooooo many kids who don't respect the teacher at all and practically do whatever they want and say whatever they want (technically we're not 'kids' anymore but still...this is my example).  parents need to get their children under control when they're young.  as soon as the kids turn 2, they should make sure that they're not spoiling them (cause they'll turn into brats) and they need to emphasize again and again on how to act with others.
