Children can learn to survive in society only if they learn how to act properly towards their parents. They can then transfer this behavior to others. This is lacking in many ways today . One major change that is required is in respect. Children stopped learning to respect their parents. Parents try to encourage children to treat them as equals, even though they are certainly not equal to their parents in any way.

As a result, some children speak to their parents in a coarse manner. They don't listen to the needs or requests of the parents. For their part, some parents react with a faint smile, and the parents act as if the behavior is "cute."

It's not cute. It's wrong.

When children are raised without being given the tools to respect their parents, then they do not understand the need to respect their spouse, to respect their environment, to respect their religion, or to respect the foundation stones for the entire world, up until today.

The only way to correct this situation is by restoring the respect that the parents deserve.

This will require disciplining, despite modern thinkers who believe that it is important to reason with children and have them come to an understanding of the right way to act.

Children require discipline both at home and in school, in order for them to behave properly and children who do not behave properly, should be punished in order to make them act properly.

In today's world, this would be reason to discipine the parents or the teacher!

In other words, there will be a reversal of the existing laissez-faire situation. Control will return to the parents and to the schools.

If this scenario does not take place, then there may be a drastic curtailment of the birth rate in the Western world. Parents will refuse to bring children into the world under these conditions.
