Adults have been entirely disempowered to discipline children and this is the outcome. Teachers can’t do anything really, schools can’t do anything, Parents can’t or won’t and often don’t even believe when told of their children’s actions outside of the home. It’s not going to win my any friends saying it but children are massively coddled and overprotected by (often wellmeaning) naive rulemakers. One example being that they told teachers they can never have a private 1-1 conversation with students, for example, because the student could make an accusation and there wouldn’t be witnesses. Never mind that a quiet 1-1 can be vital in getting through to them, they must be protected and adults must be presumed to be a danger.
No discipline in the home or in school, no third spaces for kids, drugs and alcohol etc and boom you have a problem.
2015 was an interesting time. The national crime reporting standards came down hard on various police forces to record EVERYTHING.
Crime reports massively increased. Is there a shift in culture on reports to police which were, over the last 2 generations, a matter that was dealt behind closed doors?
(Edit: Not a pay wall, just me being too hasty on payment popups – my fault)
This doesn’t surprise me. I work in children’s mental health and have seen an uptick in CPV first-hand.
I don’t want to say the C word, but this definitely seems to have gotten considerably worse since 2020. There are so many factors at play but we see a lot more defiant and aggressive behaviour in children and young people than we had beforehand.
Anyone affected by this should contact PEGS. https://pegsupport.co.uk
Parents need to start saying no to young children so they grow up accepting it, also give consequences, it may be old fashioned but I used time out 1 minute per year of age where they sat unable to play
Kids today just seem like they’ve been pushed into maturing way too early and it just seems to have made them depressed af which is fair enough cause the world and this country is shit but when I was a kid which wasn’t even that long ago we had a lot longer time to live in ignorance and just be a kid whereas nowadays they’ve got iPhones etc at like 8 years old.
Almost half of these are because of my (catte) son – who seems to not begin his day until I have received a thwacking.
