Yeah i hear what you lot are talking about, but as Ms Understood said it is a general lack of respect for everyone.

I went into a black owned jewellery store the other day and i was talking to the woman, her daughter just bust into the shop with her big weave and school uniform and interrupted us by demanding her mum give her £30 for some top that she had paid adeposit on because the shopkeeper said he wasn't holding it any longer.

Her mum told her to wait but the girl kept cussing, so the mum said she is not giving her the money. The daughter (school pickney!!!) started to cuss her mum and the mum was not saying nothing!!!

Now what you can do at home is one thing, but what you allow your kids to do in front of people is a next!!!! I had to tell the girl she have totalk to her mother better than that. I could not take it anymore!!!! That girl was so lucky she did not have a mum like mine!! When my mum finish with her she would have one row of weave left on her head, and the rest tied around her neck, but school uniform would have been intact!!!

After this me and the mum resumed our conversation and her response was rolling her eyes and saying "kids", and i was thinking in my head 'Not mine!!!!!'

The lack of respect is due to many parents laziness and tolerance of nonsense.

I have a big woman friend and she has a young daughter that is SO rude, i cannot stand her and she is only 4 (i feel bad to say that but it is true), i call her Damiena!!

When you're at the house the child will see you watching something and just change the channel!!!, she will answer back, cuss, keep telling everyone to shoosh if we (the adults) are talking, she has even got a belt to try and hit me with because i told her off for dashing drink in her 18 year old sisters face.!!!! When she come with the belt all morals of not physically reprimanding anyones child just went out of the window. I DRAGGED her up, and told her mum, and the mum said good. If this is aged 4 and she dont feel no way to even tell her grandma to shutup, how will she be when he she is 16????

Peace~
