What Is Going Off? All Down To 'lad Culture' It Seems.

In my day the nearest a lad got to committing a sexual act against a girl, was chasing them after school in a catch and kiss game.
But then we had separated schools, Boy's Entrance and Girl's Entrance.
Could it be there is too much familiarity among the young sexes these days?
Or (ducks under the desk) too much sex education?

ummmm - /Would it really work though. Taught respect in school and witness disrespect at home. //
We have to make a start somewhere - but since the notion is academic, with no chance of ever being implemented, then it doesn't really matter if it would work or not.
I believe it would, it may take two or three generations, which is why here-today-gone-tomorrow politicians would never sanction it - but I still believe that respect begins with small children, and will grow with them.

I do agree. Most parents do insist on respect from their little ones. It'll be hard to install for the children who go home to chaos.
I was brought up with what I thought was a fear of authority. It wasn't a fear, it was respect for authority.
My mother didn't shout or smack. She instilled respect by using words. It doesn't work for everyone though.
If my upbringing was left to my dad I would probably be a complete brat. Lovely man, soft touch.

I know what you mean.
As parent and grandparent, I was, and still am, far too soft. My children will firmly tell me not to go and comfort their children whom they have told off. I never interfere, but I find it hard to hear one of them upset and not do anything about it - but the mums are definitely in charge, as it was when they were little.
I know there are obviously a lot of families where respect instilled in school is lost when they get home, but I think that framework does work, and eventually it will work its way through the generations until they children taught respect properly will grow into adults who will pass it on as a matter of course.
But as I have said, it won't happen because governments do not value pre-school and primary education anything like as much as they should, for all their bombast about 'society' - that is what our children will be - our future society.
