Urgh; ignorant parents are a peve of mine as well. I was shocked when I used to work at a grocery store, what parents will let their kids do in public. Opening packages of foods, eating some and tossing the rest on the floor.. etc. I am not a fan of conservative parents who don't even let their kids choose things like what to wear, tec. But on the other bad end of the spectrum are those that just don't care.. sad.
