12-14 year olds have always been narcissistic lazy a** munches. it's just that you're not 12-14 years old anymore(?) so you notice it more now.

Agreed.
I didn't know how annoying I was in Middle School until well into High School.

ikr? i was an absolute little s**t probably even after high school lol
Parents are now more afraid of their kids than the kids are of them.

it's all of this "don't tell your kids no, be positive" "no don't hit them" "don't punish them" bullshit.


Don't hit em..we saw how that worked for the older generation. wink made them forget how to raise children properly.

Maybe so. Doesn't change the fact that they're narassitic assholes though. LOL

It is mostly the parent's fault, also a bit of environment.
And no, it isn't because we "don't hit our kids anymore."
Not everyone received that type of punishment in their childhood before us, and not everyone is like that.
Also why the ******** would you ever want to hit a god damned child.
Chances are, they didn't know what they did was wrong.
It is the parent's responsibility to teach the child, not beat them.


Agreed 100%. Make them respect you and be consistent with your parenting but don't make them fear you by losing your cool and attacking them.

yes but rest assured, every generation of 12-14 year olds has been this way so at least it's not a new thing. lol

I hate it when I hear parents say "be good" to their child.
Like what is "good"?
Don't give them vague instructions, tell them exactly what you expect.
And then the parents get pissed when their child does something that isn't under their definition of "good".
Oh man, I could rant about this all day.

yeah but i'm sorry in some cases they need it. I mean don't hit them every time they annoy you, kids will be kids, but sometimes it's all that will get them to listen.
