Hooray for Lindsay......We are getting too PC to be able to say these things.

My parents taught us respect....respect your elders they have lived longer and have forgotten more than you'll ever know.......respect yourself, remember your body has to last a lifetime.....don't put bad stuff into it or do bad stuff to it.
Respect property - yours and other peoples, they paid hard earned cash to get what they have.
And if you can't pay, then you can't go.......no such thing as 'tick'
Never do a bad turn when you can do a good one.
These were t he things my parents taught me........I don't know what parents teach their children these days...unless it is 'get them before they can get you'.....and maybe 'yes, of course you can have it...if you can steal it'

Ok, OK, I know there are some very good parents out there, who struggle against the odds and against the pressure of other bad parents influence from chav kids. No one said parenting would be easy. But if you give children rules and boundaries....and stick to them then you have gone a long way on the right road.
