Some Mothers Do Have 'em
12 Answers
I was waiting at the bus stop today at the bus shelter a young woman was waiting with a small kid in a buggy and another boy about 5 or 6 years old, taking no notice of the elder boy whatsoever she proceeded to ring all her friends on her mobile that no 1 son had been "excluded" from school because he had tried to strangle another boy with a skipping rope and it was all the head teachers fault as she knew he had behaviour problems and should not have allowed a skipping rope in the playground as they knew what he was like !,presume it wasn't the first child he had tried to strangle then ? whilst these conversation was going on the boy in question finishes a can of drink dropped it on the floor and stamped on it with his foot & crushed it then threw it at a passing car then attempted to smash the glass in the bus shelter, did she say one word to the boy, no she was too busy talking on the mobile. Is this what is known as "modern parenting "?

She (the GP) had her son with her and he was asking repeatedly if they could go back into the shop so that he could have an ice cream. The answer was a repeated "No" so while the woman carried on talking to my mum, the son reached up and bit her really hard on the arm. She didn`t bat an eyelid! Completely ignored him - my mum was aghast. The kid went on to be excluded from school for pushing a boy down the stairs, causing a broken leg. So much for ignoring bad behaviour!
