He refused to listen to my warnings. There are hundreds of grandparents who are just biting their tongues over the way their grandchildren are being raised. They want to say something, they need to say something, but they don't for fear of offending their children. Many couples would be wise to ask for and to listen to the warnings of the grandparents. I dare say that most grandparents would identify a lack of consistent discipline as the number one problem.
Many teachers bite their tongues too.
In their classrooms are kids who are out of control. The teachers know these kids don't get discipline at home. They see the kids drifting into trouble. But the parents don't want to listen and some even dare to blame the school or the teacher when the inevitable trouble comes. D Also, parents need to be examples to their children.
