"It is worrying to witness the current situation of alcohol-fuelled, disrespectful behaviour threatening to overwhelm many UK towns at night & weekends. On a day-to-day basis we are witnessing the bad behaviour of children in supermarkets and banks, on buses, and in many other places outside the school setting.

It is frightening to think of the consequence the current climate may have on our society in times to come. The situation is now reaching crisis point - I believe we are 'losing' a generation. We've been hearing debate after debate on the radio and television stations for years. The big question, however, is this: how has all this time spent airing problems actually helped? We can conclude from the lack of change that simply discussing the problem while not doing anything concerning its root is time spent fruitlessly.

Mind you, we can’t blame the schools. They can't do anything about a child who has started school with no sense of respect for authority nor sense of boundaries. I believe, as they say, that a problem must be taken back to its ‘source’ in order to understand it fully.

The source in this case is the ‘parent’.

A parent must take full responsibility for their child during those all-important pre-school years. For example, a parent should spend some quality time with his or her children, engaging them in constructive and educational activities. We must help our children to learn how to cope with disappointments so they can become stronger, stable people when they grow up. Let’s teach them to take their own responsibilities rather than then waiting to be disciplined by us.

After all, ‘discipline’ is a core part of every person’s life. If you are self-disciplined then you choose your behaviour instead of being ruled by it. You will feel more powerful, in charge of yourself, happy and satisfied. Once one’s body is accustomed to the discipline, it becomes more like a relaxing, calming exercise than hard work. We must help the future generation to understand that being self-disciplined is real freedom.

Parents should be their children's first teacher; it is the most priceless gift that they can give to their child. This would build respect and admiration for a parent in the eyes of the his or her children. This would make them contented internally and enable them to perform in better life having vision, charisma and enthusiasm.

My passion and driving force in life is to make a difference in the lives of children. I feel passionate about this decline in behaviour, and urge the government to do something about it. I think the government should put in place a system in order to train parents to train their children with will-power and self discipline. I think this is severely lacking in our society.

I am inviting concerned parents, teachers, politicians, and others involved in the lives of young people to sign on to my campaign and express support. Your time & support would help to arrest and or even mend the current situation.
