A friend of mine is of the firm belief that it's not the parents fault if children are ill-behaved.Or, indeed, the teachers.
He maintains - because he read a book once - that children mainly learn from children, and that adults have very little influence over their behaviour.
I only hang out with him because he does a good impression of finding my jokes funny.

It does make a certain kind of sense.I'm sure it's more relevant in some societies more than others also.
