www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-67842890Bury North (Conservative) MP James Daly said: "Most of the kids who struggle in Bury are the products of crap parents and so what do we do to try to address that issue? "On the left it would just be we'll throw money at this and hope something sticks, somebody like me thinks about this more fundamentally." *********************** One thing I do when I people watch is to note how parents are engaging with their children. The fatter the parents are the more likely they are to come across to me as "crap parents". "Obesity levels in Reception age children in Bury increased significantly in 2020/2021 to 41.9%, well in excess of the national average of 27.7%".

Most kids who struggle nationwide are a result of bad parenting .What we do is teach new mums to talk to their kids as a minimum instead of having their faces glued to their phones .

We go for a lot of pub meals, most of the time the parents are completely 'switched off' glued to their phones, while little Johnny and Jenny are being fuckin pests, ruining the experience of other diners, and I will just add one more thing, we live in what would be classed as affluent area, so don't stereotype the typical council house estate chavs, even snooty upmarket parents are just as switched off. |

I blame the pushchair which pointed away from the parent pushing it whereas the pram was always facing the parent who could then talk and interact with the child. I agree however that parents out with children now are glued to the phone and the advent of the video clips of children doing things or having things done to them verges quite often on child abuse as most are clearly set ups. |

A good parent teaches their child personal responsibility, self-respect and shows them the path to a happy and successful life.
A bad parent wallows in victimhood, and that gets passed onto their kids.
Personally, I think one of the stupidest things you can do in life is to label yourself. eg when somebody tells me they are working class I just think they are a moron for pigeon-holing themselves.

No doubt about it, parents in comparison to 30/40 years ago don't give a shit. They can't even bring their sprogs up to have manners and say please and thank you.
The dregs expect the state to parent their kids when they're in need of something.

Whenever I see bad behaviour, I half joking say, "I blame the parents", but I really mean it, that includes my own grandkids, (Fair Society's post above often applies).

Personally, I think one of the stupidest things you can do in life is to label yourself. eg when somebody tells me they are working class I just think they are a moron for pigeon-holing themselves. Good parenting begins before learning personal responsibility. Self respect is a feeling which is partially learnt by the feelings of being accepted and respected by the parents, not being spoilt or just tolerated by parents. It seems to me that most parents do not know of or understand this important early sensory learning. I say that as someone who when parenting my own children did not know of it, or have any understanding of it. The ownership of the feelings of being accepted and respected learnt in the very early years of life, which are learnt through the sensory system not through words, is capable of opening wide the emotionally controlled area of long term memory. Which is perhaps one of the main ingredients for a happy and successful life. |
