Rushed parent, possibly? Someone that doesn't care about doing the right thing, most definitely! This just adds one more example to my growing list of things that make up this generation of "it's not my fault and my mom even said so". You would think that with so much technology and information floating around that the lessons of kindness, responsibility and accountability would be ones that people would "buy into" and care about, and they do, until it involves them or their kids, then it is every man for himself.

They apparently have yet to learn what good character means ... must not have spent enough time with YOU. I hope your tomorrow is a much better day, and may the character lessons you teach every day be reflected in what you see.<br /><br />Jen<br /><a href="http://www.rundesroom.com" rel="nofollow">Runde's Room</a>Runde's Roomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10131626283927713737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647389869700092299.post-32822245582283116222012-05-30T19:11:54.006-05:002012-05-30T19:11:54.006-05:00Ugh, I'm so so sorry.

It is these children that will grow up making positive influences out there!!! On the other hand, it's okay to be upset because it's a huge inconvenience for you! Thinking of you Barbara!!!

It is so frustrating that someone A) hit you, not driving carefully and B) didn't do the right thing by letting you know! As I was reading, I was going to suggest the security cameras until I read that they were "broken". I hate that...last year some mean girls let the air out of my daughters tire at school.....I was on FIRE...I wanted heads, but when I called, I got "Mrs. Eiken, the area where your daughters car was parked....the cameras don't seem to be working" Are you serious?????<br /><br />I am praying for you today, that God will bless you in a special way and that the person responsible will own up to it and do the right thing.<br /><br />You are so right about the next generation. I am so saddened by the lack of parenting/manners taught/respect/love/.....the list goes on, that I see on a daily basis. I try my hardest to grind manners and respect into my students for the short time that I have them in hopes it will stick!!<br />Praying for you and sending hugs!!!<br /><b><i><a href="http://4thgradefrolics.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">4th Grade Frolics</a></i></b>Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14100654459834919470noreply@blogger.com
