When I worked in a large city, passing by someone experiencing homelessness wasn’t an uncommon sight. The difficult situation of those I saw touched me       , and I often felt, “I would be one of them        the kindness of God.”

I felt forced to do something, and as a single mom and newcomer to my field, I decided to  __     a plan that fit my limited budget. I began by        five to ten dollar bills each payday, and during the week, passing        out to those I met on the street.

Though a dollar felt like a small       , I realized how      _ it was to give the gift of being seen: for me to recognize that those I passed by were people just like me.        we would joke a bit and smile together. On some occasions, I was able to        more. I’ll never know how and if the dollars       , but I know that the connections we made did.

One day after I had started this weekly practice, I had        enough to buy myself a new winter coat. With my recent purchase wrapped around my shoulders, I        that my old coat could still be put to use by someone who had little or nothing to        them from the cold. However, at that moment, I felt inspired to pass on this opportunity for       . I turned to the salesman who had helped me, and asked if he would feel        taking my old coat, walking to the corner, and offering it to someone       . Slightly taken aback, he smiled. “I will as soon as I get a break,” he said. “Thanks for your       .”

I can’t help but feel that my        with kindness have moved me to pass it on, and in this way, I feel I’ve helped more than just those I        by on the street. Kindness touches many hearts, and I am grateful for the way it has        mine.

“A very disruptive(调皮捣蛋的) six-year-old child kicked my legs and clawed at my hand,” said one teacher. “ I broke up a fight and was kicked between my legs,” said another. Many people have heard stories like this. But the situation is more worrying still and it involves parents.

Every child, regardless of the circumstances into which they are born, has the right to achieve their potential, regardless of their parents’ wealth and class. And we recognize that, as a nation, it is a long way to achieve this goal. But with rights come responsibilities and what worries people is that we are in danger of ignoring the latter.

Far too many children are behaving badly at school, even to the point of being violent to staff. This is terrible enough, but it is hard to be surprised since many children are just mirroring the behaviour of their parents.

My members tell me that parents also come into school often and threaten staff and some staff have been attacked by a pupil’s parents. One father encouraged his child to start a fight on the playground before school started. A primary teacher reported that a parent shouted at him. We need to have a serious and sensible debate about the roles and responsibilities of parents and the support that they can reasonably expect of schools and teachers.

Children will not learn how to behave as social beings if they are stuck in front of the TV for hours every day. They need their parents to show an interest in them and to spend time with them, helping them to play with their peers(同龄人) and to learn the rules of social behavior.

Children are now arriving at school socially undeveloped, increasingly unable to dress themselves, unable to use the toilet properly, unable to hold a knife and fork and unused to eating at a table, Mary Bousted, general secretary of the Association of Teachers and Lecturers, writes in today’s Observer. Instead of taking responsibility themselves, too many parents expect teachers to control their children’s behaviour and wellbeing, she adds. Bousted says one mother blamed staff when she discovered that her 16-year-old son was smoking.

We are in danger of becoming a nation of families living separate lives under one roof. The bedroom, once a place to sleep, has become the living space for the young. Spending hours in front of computer screens, on social networking sites or being immersed(沉迷于) in computer games, children and young people spend little time with their parents. Parents are unable to monitor just what their children are watching.

Schools cannot right the wrongs of society and teachers cannot become substitute parents. Both parties need to work together. Parents must be helped and given confidence to take back control. They are responsible for setting boundaries for their children's behaviour and sticking to those boundaries. They are responsible for setting a good example to their children and for devoting that most precious of resources — time — so that children come to school ready and willing to learn.
