Talking down to kids obnoxiously like this always ends up in the kids resenting the parent and leads to fights and “get back”misbehavior that drives the parents nuts until he kids get to 16 and scram.
“Shut up. You are stupid. Do this do that”
It is all really a question of HOW instructions are put.
Sadly working class parents often lack the psychological finesse or don’t care for it.
Brutalising the kids.
If any adult approaches such parents they usually get told to “Shut their mouth”,
“Dirty Old Man” or “Do you want a slap”?
This inability to distinguish between a kid in the playground and a 60-year-old adult is a characteristic of these families.
You get 4′.00 kids trying to “beat up”6’adult males.!
True kids will misbehave I guess and “test the limits” from time to time.
But these fights ought to be carried on in the home not halfway down the High Street at full volume.!
