Why is there absolutely 0 respect for elders from many kids?

Y’all say gentle parenting works but in most cases all I see are disrespectful brads who need their rear torn up. We would have never acted that way.
Your Mom was right to convince you to be polite to her other employees by letting you experience "being fired". It is good you learned and were re-hired!

@Alfred22 exactly!!!
It's a shame if you can't get your child to respect you without hitting them.

@AmbivalentFriability my mom didn’t spank often but when she did you knew damn well you messed up. A lot of her punishments were harsh without laying a finger. She actually fired me as a teen from where I worked for her because I had this “well my moms your boss so...” attitude. Anytime I wanted to do stuff she’d say well if you had a job you could afford to go. (Hires me back 2 months later but I learned .
Repeating my other comment.

Most things weren’t a hitting response other than a handful of times. My mother still had harsh punishments though that stung in other ways

I think there is a balance between being a firm parent and a relaxed parent, but being a relaxed parent is easy so that became the norm. Kids don't really have consequences these days, so they don't care.
