LACKING RESPECT: In reply to J Mortimer’s letter about children’s behaviour (Taught To Behave, News Shopper, September 10), I must admit I disagree.
I have done the wrong thing many times, but I do not hold my parents responsible for my actions.
Some people will never do as they are told, no matter what.
Most of the time they don’t care about their actions or the consequences.
These people I feel truly sorry for, and more so for their parents. So many children simply lack respect or conscience.
LEANNA, Lewisham, letter sent by text
