It's interesting to see these comments coming from men and not having any
mothers saying anything.  Years ago this wouldn't have even been a issue.
Parents always reprimanded their children with no repercussions, now it's
the kids that are right and not the parents.  No wonder this country is
going the way it is with kids ruling the parents and not the other way
around.
My kids are now a little older, in fact I'm a grandmother but I would never
put up with stuff while I was driving.  For 8 yrs. I would drive with my 3
kids to camp on a 3 hr drive to the mountains (we didn't have vans with all
the gadgits just plain old station wagons) and they knew if they acted out
yes they would be thrown out of the car to calm down.  I would only drive
about 100 ft and wait there but how else do you get things across to
children, that it is dangerous to drive while they are fighting and YOU the
driver could get into an accident and everyone could get hurt just because
you're trying to break up what ever is going on in the back seat.
Thanks for letting me vent from a mothers side of things.
