Respect

November 1, 2010 9:19am CST
Many times i see so many young teens out on the street causing trouble, also you see many elderly people not wanting to come out of their own homes because of yobs. Have people in this day and age lost respect for other people? It seems that way at the moment. A shame as this can alter a persons life, people should not be scared of coming out of their homes because of yobs, most are teenagers that are smoking and drinking on the streets, obviously the parents aren't setting a god example by allowing these teenagers to do what they are doing, and yes, many parents do know what they kids get up to, they just can't control them.

alot of parents dont care what their kids are doing and therefore shouldnt be bringing kids up

i fully agree, some people just want kids for the benefit money, but good parents they are not.

i know benefit money is better than having a job sometimes but it shouldnt stop parents from teaching kids to respect the older generation

some parents just don't care, some are lazy and terrible parents and so bad role models for there kids.

I know there are a few teens that do that around here, but its not very nice when other families and older people don't want to go out because of them and when you say something to the council or police about it they say they cannot do anything... its frustrating. Not all teens are like that but the bad ones make a bad name for them all. I was never like that as a teen but i know some people who were.

Not all are like that and a shame that nobody really does anything about them, people should not have to be scared of going outdoors, we should smile at people rather than want to cause problems.
