i dont understand why parents dont teach manners anymore. you know like dont mess with other peoples stuff when they go to your house. dont scream to the top of your lungs when you are in public. just common things that every person shoudl do. parents just dont teach that anymore.

Maybe they are just too lazy or so busy with other stuff...that they don't have the times to teach their kids manners; they just say sorry AFTER their children has done something wrong. It really bugs when when they just let their children run and shout inside the church..

Probably because the parents themselves were never taught manners and to respect other people's property. You can't expect todays children to know how to behave properly if they do not have good role models at home.

Maybe because they wanted their children to do what they wish to do, really i dont understand myself why they dont advice their kids, its not their disturbance when their child making noises and making nuisense in others house they dont seems to care. parents nowadays are busy with their own job problems that they seems to be ignoring childs need and manners. and there are those parents who would do anything for their children ignoring why the child needs it. without manners a child will be spoilt and later on will be difficult to control.

Life is now akin to a pressure cooker. Everyone is under severe stress and pressure and when we see something that does not go our way, like the child misbehaving, then we will lose our temper and flare up even if it is in the public.
It is also the current environment whereby both parents need to come out to work in order to support the family. This will leave them very little time to educate their kids.
