Kids with no "Home" Boundaries

one of my major frustrations when taking kids on in the classroom is the lack of boundaries/discipline that some parents allow in the home. how to tell?? their kids view even simple direction as an assault on their personhood. it really sucks because it makes simple things like "do your homework" or "stop talking while others are" into this "you hate me"/"you're mean" drama-o-rama.

so to that i resoundingly say..."thanks, parents! you sure make my day a lot tougher...and your kids' over all journey to adulthood a lot longer and more traumatic."

boundaries/discipline=GOOD! healthy sense of self and security, consciousness of others...good stuff.
