Kids.
Ever wondered why some kids can be so loud and rude to their elders?...You don't have to look far actually. It can come from your own backyard!...hahaha...yup, and it's such a disturbing sight too.
Children, well most of them, emulate the adults within their scope of sight and relations. When they see or hear adults talking, cursing or shouting to each other, unconsciously, the scene embeds itself in their minds. This will later be 'vomitted' from their innocence as something that is not wrong, ok to do and nothing unusual.
But it's a shame to see them emulating all the negativities they inherit from the adults....and we the adults are to blame for polluting their minds. Shame on us too!
There's a family I know of where a grandson of about 4 yrs old seems to find it ok to shout at his grandparents! Horror of horrors!!!...If I were given the chance, I would smack him silly. But then, you can't blame him either cause he sees his dad doing it, his grandfather doing it...so, what do you expect him to think? Of course he thinks it's ok.
But reprimanding him in a way he understands and without force or harshness will make him realise what he did was wrong...Do not scold him, berate him or even beat him....cause that will not teach him the right way either.
