    Israeli kids unruly? What a shock!

    Here's a new and different idea: maybe parents should be disciplining their kids instead of giving them free rein on everything. My husband has had more issues with his daughter because her mother never dealt with her discipline problems. "She's fine," Mom said. Oh yeah? How many 10 year olds are asked to leave their public school due to discipline problems? In Israel a student has to kill someone to be thrown out. Now this same daughter quit the army 2 months into her service, married at 18, can't keep a job more than 3 months and actually thinks she can come to the US and immediately get an executive position, all with a sub-stabdard high school education. McDonalds, here she comes!
