Why are parents so quick to blame things like MTV, video games, and TV in general for their children's lack of discipline? Yes, it is true that what is acceptable on TV now would never be allowed on "back in the day" but is that any excuse? I've run busineses for five years and I have witnessed thousands of parents let thousands of kids run wild. When I was a child, when I made a mess at a restaurant, we would not leave until I cleaned it up. When I was a child, I was not allowed to put my greasy hands all over glass, to play around with things that didn't belong to me, etc. These may seem like minor things, but why don't you parents realize that this is what molds your children for the future! Anyway, my question wasn't rhetorical. Really, parents of "bad children" why can't you blame yourself?
