Buses

I try to teach my children respect and good manners and hopefully they learn something but they are ridiculed by their peers when they are polite and considerate, it's a long hard struggle.

Even the basic 'please' and 'thank you' seem to be missing from some people's vocabulary.

You hit the nail on the head I think Spuggie.
 
I was always taught good manners dont cost anything and have taught Lauren that. She even has the curtousy to thank the driver when she gets of a bus and the drivers to my eye appriciate it. Buses are a public domain and should have behavior on them that alludes to this but sadley too many consider it a playground or a gang area to do as they please. Good manners reflect on the parents as do bad manners so what people think of these kids parents must be that they are of the lowest kind.
 
Im sure Im going to go on a slight thread wander here ,and apologies beforehand, but at the end of the day it does all boils down to the same thing..
The majority of our generation ie(35_ 50)were actually brought up with morals, dicipline and manors. the generation before us being brought up much stricter than us, but IMHO the way our younger generation are today ,ISNT , entirly down to the parents, but also the government becoming too soft and introducing all these stupid laws and making yougsters become too aware of how they can intimidate parents./adults /elders/ authorities
I was brought up with good manners and woe betide me if i didnt use them and i HAD to always respect my elders ,which i did without another thought , including thanking the bus driver .
But again the generation we have today are so god damn ignorant and clever to the extent they know full well they can disrespect ANYONE and no,one including the police can do a thing.
They go around with a cocksure attitude knowing full well that no one can touch them because the law is so well publicised the fact that it is a childs world and decent dicipline is a no no, so why shouldnt they take the mik , ? they know they can !!! until.adults start standing up for themselves (which is something im working on at the moment by the way)once again and start regaining adult and parent rights ..ie like stricter dicipline in schools and with the police , our next generation and the one after and after are going to turn into absolute tearaways.
Im not saying ...lets beat them to a pulp....but what i am saying is bring back the dicipline ..it wont do them any harm at all..
 
I agree, bring back corporal punishment! Sack the PC brigade and make the country Great again!
