It seems like parents are just shifting all the work to the teachers these days.

As a parent you have a lot of responsibilities to your children. Most people just put their kids in front of the tv and that's it.

No more proper parenting like 10 or 20 years ago when I was a child.

I was still told to stay please and thank you to other people, be quiet when adults talk, .....

And we all wonder why kids are out of control and try to rape/shoot their parents

Kids are a constant job that never stops

Put kids in front of TV is slightly better than those parents who think all the bad behaviors their kids do are "cute", and laugh about it in front of the kids, so their kids have positive feedback about the bad behaviors.
