Is Discipline Non-Existent These Days?

[Momof4]

I have a simple common sense answer: My own children are in their 20's and 30's now and they are the age of most of the new parents we have to deal with on a daily basis. Now when I remember back to when they were small and I was disciplining them it was the start of the 'Kid's Help Line' that was taught at schools and how parents should never spank them because that was abuse.

It is my opinion that since the school system taught this generation that their parents should not be disciplining them that it is there in their brains deep down that they should not discipline their children. I have two daughters who are now Moms and one of my daughters is pretty strict with her kids and she has a great husband for backup. My other daughter is a single Mom and having issues with her son, but all in all he is pretty darned well behaved. Partly because he was in Grandma's daycare for 3 1/2 year, if I do say so myself!
