I don't think saying darshan to the elders EVERYTIME you see is nepali discipline; it might be in some culture, but at least not in my culture. I think you're overexpecting it. If you demand too much and discipline the kids too much, they'd be uncontrollably rebellious after some time. I will never want my kids to respect me in that way by saying darshan hajur and helping me to put my socks or bowing stuff. Even if you succeeed in getting them do that way, do you want them to behave that way when you guys are alone in home or in the presence of others too? You may not feel anything but do you think their peers won't feel awkward/weird assuming you're in america? If they're lacking in manners and have disrespect to elders in other ways, it's good that you're tyring to be a good parent and good luck for that.

 culture has to be passed towards next generation that is what define what the person is in long run . if u go to nepal you will see people will do namaste, darshan some of them even bow their head in your leg isn't that awesome its just i want to pass that to my next generation in good way .

Being raised by their grandma I do not have such behavorial problem with my kids. In fact, when I visited Nepal last year everybody I met praised the way my kids respected their seniors. My point is- working parents should put little extra effort to teach their children manners et al. Just my view.

BIKARM TEMPO, what do you want?? you want your kids to be slave?? and yeah they are kids, if they don't watch cartoons and all, what do you expect them to do. watch P***. you need to forget about what you used to do. its different society and culture where your kids are been raised. Just make sure they don't get into bad habits, such as drugs and all... and intellignet guy, AVM stands for adarsha vidya mandi. and who said admitting kids to expensive boarding school will teach'em manners and discipline.
