Should family discipline be restored after all parents are responsible for the family?

If children have no respect for their parents how can they be expected to have respect for other people. I believe that if they were more disciplined at home we would not have all the problems with anti-social behaviour that the taxpayers have to cough up for. I also understand that not all these youngsters have families and probably need more help from the authorities. By disciplining I certainly do not mean abusing the children ( yet another issue).
