Re: No respect

You are right Jen, but it was a deterrent, and it kept a lot of us(who could have gone bad ways) out of trouble.
These days there is nothing (official)to act as a brake on bad behaviour.
So I guess it is down to as many parents as possible to show their authority from the moment the baby is put in their arms.
