Got a nephew that is 21 will be 22 into that "gangsta" look...oh for heaven's sakes! He would come in at his grandma's house, my mother had a cow, seeing him hood up, covering his eyes and face so close to the plate that he looked like a human vacuum cleaner. I looked at my sister and there is nothing she could do to correct him in his manners so my mother went up to him, SLAPPED the side of his head, yanked off the hoodie off from his head and told him as LONG you are under my roof, you WILL NOT disrespect ME or your Grandfather!
He didn't do that anymore. Got rid of the low riding pants because his employer said you need BOTH hands to work and get a belt for your pants if you are keen to keep them!
My other nephew is so much nicer in manners, takes his hat off when he eats or in a church or respectful places of authority.
I remember hubby said when he went to court for speeding, the judge that day was on a rampage about the irresponsible men and kids wearing hats and looking like goof balls in his court. Even ONE gal that had her hat cocked sideways and he asked her if she is protecting her earlobes from the sun. She said no. He promptly told her to remove her hat. Then, He ordered them to take off their hats, tuck in their shirts and take the nose and lip earrings OFF. He said that judge was like Judge Judy on her BADDEST days!
