Dear Christine,
I can easily agree with those limits and think that parents have do the best they can at all times. Personally I think you need to find better ways train and create a relationship. I only based my comment on divorce because of the latest statistics being at a 60% divorce rate so that would probably affect all classes of people. I have friends from educated and uneducated homes and they all have their share of troubles. I have seen accounts of mothers spanking their children in a grocery store and being arrested. A boy in California called 911 and told the police his mother was spanking him and they came and arrested her. From my understanding spanking is illegal in the state I live in, at least in public or using belts or other things. I have never accepted the thought that children that are spanked become violent as adults. I think children that are ignored and not respected become violent as adults. Who really knows what causes it.
We just have to encourage everyone we encounter and help wherever possible.
Nancy
