Children's misbehavior

According to a recent newspaper report, a 15 years old boy killed a classmate and injured several others in a school in Bengaluru.

Todays parents and grand parents seem to give too much undeserved lenience to their children with an absolutely wrong perception that it is a gesture of affection.

Such children not only develop bad behaviour but also hurt their spouses, inlaws, and others in house in different ways after they get married.

Our Governments should come up with strict measures to prevent this oddity. It is high time that parents and grandparents are educated rightly on this neglected aspect.
