thats a good question. Do you think it has something to do with the fact that this country is moving more and more closer to allowing children to be disrespectful to their parents?

Not to say a parent shouldn't stand their ground but I remember back in the day, if I acted up and the school called, they expected my mother to come up their and spank my behind, but now days, just the tiniest thing can be thrown in the pile as "abusive" = call child social services so many parents hands are tied.

I don't know......

Just curious and throwing that out there.
