Public Attitudes To Parenting
The public believe that better parenting is key to reducing crime and anti-social behaviour in Britain according to a new poll by the Ipsos Social Research Institute. A failure to bring up children properly is felt the main cause of anti-social behaviour today and the public are keen for steps to be taken. The large majority believe that parents should be held responsible for the bad behaviour of their children and be made to take help if their child is involved in anti-social behaviour. Two-thirds of parents say they would personally find help from outside their friends and family useful in dealing with difficult or troublesome behaviour of their children.

Research conducted by Ipsos for the Young Foundation shows that the British public believe political parties have an important role to play in democracy.

At the same time, fewer than a quarter believe that parties are open and transparent, and the most popular approaches to making parties more appealing would be for them to involve people more in local decision making and for them to listen more to the public.
