My children were taught to respect adults. In the classroom, they must abide by the rules, it was not always someone else's fault. I must say, my child never got in trouble at school. He saved his bad behavior for home. When he would come home griping about a teacher or principal's behavior, I never agreed. I would tell him it is the teacher's class or prinicipal's school and he must abide by the rules. Sometimes I agreed with him, but I never let him know that. My other child is disabled, so we had different circumstances with him.
I feel I was a good role model because I practiced what I preached.
