Parenting: If children behave badly are parents to be blamed?
Are parents to be blame when things go wrong with the children? It will depends on the problems. I think that you're somewhat responsible for your child upbringing but then the things that they do on their own is out of your reach. Children will go off and do things on their own and it doesn't mean that it's your problems. You're not responsible if your children decided he wanted to smoke some stuff one day. You can try to lecture him for years but he'll do what he'll do and that is out of your league. I think the child is responsible for his or her problems too.
Children should be responsible for their own behaviors and parents have a hard job already and I don't think that they're to blame for the most part. I think that raising children to be responsible for their own behaviors is important. They should not have to be shape all of the time by parents because parents only have so much energy, time and patience to teach their kids over and over again. There are children that don't listen regardless of how much their parents ground them. I think that if a child has the energy to play video games and smokes then he or she also has the energy to learn and take responsibility for his or her actions.
I have seen how my parents work very hard to discipline my sisters and I but we did what we wanted to do and indeed he got into trouble many times in our childish stage. My parents did everything that they can but still no results. I have several siblings that just go off on their own and do their own thing and then gotten into trouble. It's not my parent's fault. Your child is also responsible for his or her own action. You can spend years training them and one day all it takes is a little thing and then they're in trouble with the law.
I think that parents can do their best to discipline their kids but when they break loose you're not the one to blame. It does make you look bad but it's not your fault. When your kids steal or do drugs, they made that decision on their own. You didn't force them to do it. You're not the one to blame even though people look at you but you're not responsible. Parents can do everything but the kids will still do bad things. You have tried your best but they also have to be responsible for their own action too.
