Why Always Blame The Parents

I disagree. I think a child's upbringing is the full responsibility of the parents. If you don't want to discipline a child, don't have a child! It's not the teacher's job to teach kids right from wrong.. it is the teacher's job to teach kids how to read, write and add.. not to teach them morals, values, manners, and respect! All that should happen at home. And you don't need to abuse a child to teach them these things. There are simpler punishments that do so much more to the child than a spanking.. such as taking away their electronics or video games. When my kids misbehave they are grounded.. by grounding they lose their priveledges to play video games or watch TV or use the computer. This is not child abuse, but it is effective!

Parents are there to provide guidance and support to their chiodren, they should not be there to shoulder the blame for everything that goes wrong. being a parenet does not give you total control of your child's life. nothing does that. so much has to be taken in stride and one step at a time,

every kid is different just as each parent is. sometimes it can really be blamed on the homelife of the kid but its unfair to just assume it always is. i raised 4 and all in the same circumstances. only one of them was prone to getting in trouble. as for parental control, parents gradually allowed that to happen over time. spanking the child? to each his own but i haave to add that all my girls turned out respectful and responsible and by choice, i did not use spanking as a method of discipline and i was a single parent. it can be done!

I think a lot of people blame parents for their children . I was walking the other day and I see this child run out into the road and it was a good thing the mother was so fast to grab him , and she sure give him some beating for doing that and tell him not to do it again . It rushes cross my mind immediately that if that child was hit , the mother would have gotten the blame even though she dont deserve it . I think some children already born with certain traits and no one can change that , its like their purpose . I think parents majority will be blame for whatever action their children do . I know their are children out there that never teach their children right from wrong .

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. yes u are absolutely right, parents should not be blamed always for wrong reasons. They are the ones who are always there with the children from the beginning till the end and can never think about something bad happening with their children. I think here comes the responsibility of the children also to look after their parents and be sensible and matured enough so that they can handle the duties by themselves very efficiently and wont give any scope for others to complain. What say?
