Oh definitely.
Parents need to take proper disciplinary actions at a young age too. Someone at this forum whom I can't remember said something like- "yeah parents say 'go to your room' where they have internet access, a tv, and videogames. "
They need to start at a young age with kids- showing them right from wrong and that they must obey the parents. When the kid gets older he/she needs to keep these things in mind when they are making decisions because they will have to take responsibility for their actions.
Very true on the parents perspectives, I'v seen parents simply say that and sorry to say it but it's pure b.s. Parents yes do need to take proper disciplinary actions, for the greater good on their child. Not just saying to simply go to their room...tell where the hell is the punishment in that? No where! It's actually rewarding...hey go to yer room and play and yes my dear son/daughter do it again. Parents at time can be gullible and well...lets face it stupid
