Kids These Days......

As im walking thru my local grocery store just the other day, i cross paths with a couple of boys clearly in their early teens. And i just happened to over hear a conversation that was going on with the two young men, and every other word was "B" word this and "F" that and so on.
So im thinking to myself, where are these kids parents? I almost stopped and said "does your mama know you talk like that". But i kept it moving just shaking my head in disbelief.
Now maybe i was raised differently then most of these kids today, but i know if i was out in public talking like that when i was their age, first off i probably would not be alive to write about this now.
What happened to the days of "act like you got some sense" i heard that alot when i was younger, or this one "you better watch your mouth". That was my favorite and i actually use that today raising my own kids. Im old school, i was raised in the 70's and 80's and back then if you was heard being disrespectful in public by anybody in your surrounding area that knows your family, you got dealt with on the spot ("butt kickin") then when you got home you got dealt with again.
Kids these days.... seem to have lost that fear of their parents because us as parents can't use the old school ways of disciplining children and showing them the core values of respectfulness and proper behavior like when i grew up cause of fear of prosecution.
Bottom line... Kids these days..... Need to pull their pants up! (sagging is played out). They also need to stop wearing these lil sluttish outfits (teenage girls) cause you look easy if you know what i mean! And most importantly get back to respecting their parents or go back to the old school techniques of kickin they butts!
