What happened to our modern parents? You can hardly find them at home. Nowadays, parents are always at work rather than spending time with their children. Around the dining table, both children and parents are busy with their cellphones. No more talking, no more exchanging stories. Parents these days no longer take the time to discipline their children. They reason out that they are tired trying to make ends meet or that children have rights too. This is why, we have a generation of disobedient, disrespectful and lazy kids. The newbie parents are not supposed to be blamed for the decline of discipline among our young. In our time, our parents were not afraid to spank us. Our TV hours were closely monitored. We were taught to respect our elders and eat what was served in front of us.
