           TORONTO - A new report from the Vanier Institute for the family says that there are more problem children today than 50 years ago.
           York University professor Anne Ambert, the writer of the report, says that bad influences on children come from parents, schools, neighbors, the media (媒体), etc.
           Children today have bad behavior. They argue more with others. They stop others when others are
    talking. They are less polite to others. They choose to fight rather than discuss when they disagree with
    each other. When they have disagreements with their parents, they want to run away from home. They
    tell more lies (谎话). When they need money, they would rather steal (偷) than work hard.
           There is not enough family education about how kids behave well. Parents should care more about
    their kids. There are more and more single-parent families and more violence (暴力) on TV and in other
    kinds of media.
