We have a lot of children who disrespect all authority, because they never learned to love or respect their parents. When parents keep bending the rules or pushing them further and further out, the child has no one they can trust, as they never know where the limits are.

Thank you Eve. I see this in the school, and I feel very sorry and sad when we cannot reach a few. Very sad indeed.

So sad for ALL of us, as society is going to get the brunt of this sadness. Sad people want other people sad. And they do not get any less sad when they grow up unless one person reaches out.
