That comment is true but out of context. There are exceptions to everything. Think back to the 1950’s, 60’s and early 70’s when 2 parent households were more common. Children were brought up differently. Children were disciplined when needed they were not your friend like some parents and kids state. Schools had discipline or the student was punished by the teacher or the parents. There was much more respect for one another. When I misbehaved in school not only did I get whacked by the teacher but my parents would kick my a- - as well. Ask any teacher, discipline in school doesn’t exist because if the teacher disciplines a student he or she will be suspended or fired.
