[ferlew]

are the parents, to any extent, enabling their child's violence - do you think?

It was an hour long programme on Channel 5 started at 9pm.


I haven't watched yet, so cannot comment.

Was it good? I thought about watching it, but forgot. I think it's pretty much impossible to say how and why these situations happen. Hopefully, these families can get some help in whatever way.

I didn't watch it but read about it. Unfortunately children can be very violent towards parents for all kinds of reasons. Parents are not often aware of the reasons and not knowingly "enabling" whatever that means.

I did see it and why the parents let them children rule the roost and act like wild animals.

I don't remember children having these behavior problems when I was younger, and that OHCD or whatever its name is called didn't exist.

Maybe its because kids in them days got a good hiding and were sent to bed, without a play station, computer or I phone etc, and not seeing a family consultant and all that crap.
