I understand what you're saying about badly behaved kids, but my experience is very different. I've known parents who bawl at their children at the top of their lungs and smack them for misbehavior. Those kids tend to be the worst behaved as all. Kids behaviour tends to adapt to whatever group of friends they have, not their parents, and some of them have a dual existence - nice with their parents, annoying, disrespectful little assholes with their friends. My next door neighbour is the nicest woman. Her sons are all well known by the police, and one is inside. Not her fault, for sure.
