Not
all parents by any means but virtually all parents of kids who exert anti social behaviour
The big problem is that it is the good parents and the rest of us that currently end up paying for the irresponsible parents.
Peer group pressure is not a consideration with children entering the education system many of whom have never been outside the family unit before. Peer group pressure is also an over used excuse for parents who do not have the respect and therefore the control of their own children
