It takes a village to raise a child. Im a school bus driver with a bus full of little ones. Most of the time theyre awesome. Sometimes i have to tell them off. How else will they learn? Teachers are telling your kids off too, pulling them in line helps them learn boundaries and grow into better adults

[tamaracardon-smith]

YES..and especially if the parents aren't doing it...

[chrisrutherfurd]

I agree with you actually. I teach abroad and come down on kids who are mean, rude and disrespectful toward others in the class. No apologies.

Tell them straight, kids don't understand sugar coating it

[brucehowe]

Yes you are allowed tell other parents children off.😂

Full agreement with Daniel old school values & morals are vanishing, we ALL need to help out.

While every child is an individual with individual needs and responses, they are not "Little adults", and need to have boundaries set for them. Psychologically, this actually makes the child feel safer and more confident because they know what's expected of them, and when the expectations are reinforced (when they deliberately or accidentally test them), it reassures them that they understand where they fit in and how to behave.
