Do you think most chidren who dis-respect thier parents are from families where GOD is not taught?

The tragic loss of Kayne West's mother from a pop star rapper is coping through his faith as well as the Osmond Family who just lost thier dad at 90. They are a family (Huge) dedicated to each other, GOD and thier parents. A Survery was conducted that most kids who were taught about GOD had dinner with thier parents were less inclined to be involved in drugs, violence, sexual promiscuity and were less depressed. The trouble with the Young talent like Brittney Spears, Lindsay Lohan Paris Hilton is the total family dysfunction and lack of respect for thier parents, and the problem of not knowing how to live a GOD centered life in a materialistic world Agree?

It depends on what you consider "disrespect". Actually... no, it doesn't. No, I don't think that, no matter how you define "disrespect". Do you think you're going to stereotype for the rest of your life?
Remember the prison statistics.
The problem with Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, et al is that people keep paying attention to them. Plain and simple.
No. Im 100% in the law (going to major in Criminal Justice and Law) and didnt come from a Jesus family.
no but its worse for them...also mine rebelled but are now born again..OO
That's absurd.
I think every child is apt to disrespect their parents at some point, does not matter what the background is. I just think that if you have a good foundation, you will atleast eventually come back to it.
Your (totally misspelled) nonsense reveals where you get your information from, and it simply sucks.....
Britney Spears was brought up Christian. Back to the drawing-board, I think.
God said you could kill them. Leviticus 20:9 Any child that curses his mother or his father shall be put to death.
Not entirely. The Bible shows that in these last days, apart from children disobeying their parents, people would also have a form of worship that would just be a pretense, and would not really make them better people. 2 Timothy 3:1-5 "But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here. For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, self-assuming, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride, lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God, HAVING A FORM OF GODLY DEVOTION BUT PROVING FALSE TO ITS POWER; and from these turn away
Yes i do agree....and it was so sad when George Osmond died.....i hope Marie wins Dancing with the Stars....even though i was rooting for Sabrina, but NO! she just had to be kicked off!! oh, and i think that it's true, if they are brought up and the rules are enforced instead of taking lightly. You know, "here's what you need to know, now do it." and then they forget about their kids...Parents constantly need to be involved in their kids' lives and be a guide to them.. i think that's what the problem was with britney and paris...i mean, i think their parents let them become way to absorbed in the ways of the world. and it doesn't have to be Christianity...there are many other religions that teach to honor their parents..
maybe Did you know that Marilyn Manson's parents brought him up to be a devout Catholic, yeah that didnt turn out so well So I think it differs for each person, I am not sure how much religion plays into it.
I believe Christianity holds people together. Shared values are extremely important
You should meet my daughter. She is as godless as they come and one of the sweetest kids you will meet. I bet the having dinner together part of that is the most important.
Who?
Look at preachers' kids...they tend to be some of the wildest, most disrespectful (in my experience anyway). I think good parenting skills are a lot more important than the presence of God or a god.
Wouldn't it be great if it was that easy to figure out?!?!?
Your talking about celebrities who are hardly treated like the majority population. I don't believe in god, but i respect my parents. And its not just because the bible told me to.
Britney Spears was active in Church as a child, don't know much about the other girls. My son 26, doesn't drink or do drugs and saved sex for his wife. No God in our home just honesty and lots of love.
i agree. im not saying that children raised in a family centered around God are never disrespectful but they are much less likely to be so. it makes you wonder about people really. when you see kids disobeying their parents in public you know that the family life cant be that great.
if you consider using ur brain as bein dis-respective, yeah than id say most dis-respective kids r raised in atheist families
No, it occurs in households where spanking isn't taught. The trouble with young talent is: they aren't that talented and they're not getting any younger. Seriously, could you respect Dina Lohan (Lindsay's mom) if she were yours? Respect should be earned even if that person is your parent.
did you know that atheists account for some 18% of the american population at large, but only 0.2% of the prison population? an atheist is 90 times less likely to find himself in jail than a christian. i suppose it depends what you mean by 'respect'.
As salaamu 'alaikym, my friend. Insha'Allah, it has been my experience that they often do come from homes where religion is "taught" but they also come from homes where religion is neither "lived" nor practiced. Examples teach much louder than words. Ma'a salaam.
Of course not. It's because RESPECT is not taught. God is not necessary for manners OR morals.
I'd have to disagree. When it comes to their children, parents have a remarkable ability to see only what they want to see. I don't think one's religion (or lack thereof) changes things in that department. My father was a pastor. In his eyes, I was the perfect child. If he only knew half the stuff I got away with...
I think that generally it is true, but the type of parents who bring their kids to church are the same types of people to dicipline their kids well. So honestly, it isn't just coincidence.
Something like 75% to 80% of American households claim to be Christian in one way or another so obviously most problematic kids are going to come from religious parents. What survey? Please site the source when you use it. It seems highly questionable.
Doesn't the bible tell you to stone disobedient children to death?
some of the most brattiest rudest rebellious kids I've met have actually been pastors kids...so I can't say I totally agree with you.
is respecting christian parents really a good thing? Just look at george bush.
It can happen in any family God or not ,its the individual choice .But if they (kids ) have a belief in Christ eventually they will get straight and some times the consequences are serious
Completely disagree. My nephews are a perfect example. They're bright boys, raised in a very Baptist family, went to Christian schools growing up. One is an arrogant, self-righteous little dope who has no common sense, no humility, and thinks only of himself. The other has gotten his teenaged girlfriend pregnant twice now, has been arrested, drinks, smokes, and barely finished high school. They're just one example of people I know who were raised in "good Christian houses", that are an example of anything but your idea of wholesome.
the father is god of the household, fear and respect the mother is god of the household, love and nurture the child is to be quiet in the household, watch and learn from the successes and failures of two gods trying to coexsist god bless america
If morality has a divine sourse, then name 1 good action that could be performed by a believer and not by a nonbeliever. Then name one bad action that could be perfromed by a beleiver, and never even contemplated by a nonbeliever. You should find that the first one does not have an answer, however, the second question shouln't take more than a few seconds to answer.
I can't speak for other parents, but my children did not, and do not, disrespect me or my wife. We never yelled at them, and we were never yelled at in return. We were fair parents, and treated them as equals. My son is an MIT graduate, married and making a six figure salary at age 23. My daughter is salutatorian, and is a devout Catholic of her own choosing, and yes, she and her boyfriend have sex. I can't stop them, and if I object, they're going to do it anyway. Oh, and my wife and I are both life-long Atheists.
Your examples are of child stars that had unusual childhoods, of course they are dysfunctional. Religion has nothing to do with it.
No, I have the utmost amount of respect for my parents and have dinner with them whenever I am home. God has nothing to do with my behaviour...
What do you consider a "God" centered life? I was brought up in a Catholic household, never disrespected my parents but consider myself an atheist. Brittney grew up in a close knit southern baptist family centered around "God" and look how she turned out. You are also comparing apples to oranges in the examples you are giving. You cannot compare Kayne's upbringing to the Osmond's. You also cannot compare those two to Brittney, Lindsay or Paris. These 3 had lack of parental supervision, and mothers who wanted to be their "Friend" instead of a disciplinarian. Paris has great respect for her parents, its just that her parents are clueless socialites that think their girls have done no wrong. So to your argument I say it is not the presence of GOD in ones life it is a strong parental presence that is firm and loving with discipline.
How the hell is Paris Hilton considered a "talent"?? Britney and Lindsay both have too much money to know what to do with it and they don't know how lucky they are - that's more likely the reason for their drug use. Families that are closer together may be less likely to fall into drugs - but it doesn't necessarily have to do with religion or God. Marilyn Manson went to Catholic School
NO. That's such a biased, opinionated, propaganda spreading survey intended to convert people to Christianity. Think about all those super-strict Asian families both in Asia and in the U.S. Their culture demands respect for family and relatives, and thus, Asian families are A LOT closer to their families than other cultures are. So please don't take such surveys, which seems to have unaccounted for all the Asian families in the world or U.S. And before you wonder, most Asians ARE NOT religious, let alone Christian, and from my experience, we don't seem to communicate at the table dinner too much either. Communication is so much better in the afternoon. You forgot about all of the other religions.... Remember? Christianity's not the only religion stressing moral values! What about Buddhism and Confucianism?
Children that disrespect their parents are usually children from parents that do not respect each other.
What a crock! I do not need to prescribe to your religion to properly parent my child. If this were true, the entire world up until Christianity would have been out of control and all the current civilizations that are not predominately Christian would be as well. We'd have never developed math and science. There would be no great works of art or literature out of Greece or the middle east. Go out into the world and open your eyes. I know plenty of messed up Christians. Rehab and prisons are full of people raised in Christian homes.
I agree with you crimmson. But I also believe a lot of dis-respect full children turn out OK later in life after they get older and wiser.
yes
