Why is it the badly-behaved children's antics
rub off on the well-behaved ones, but not the other way round?

1. Series
My normally well-behaved son comes home from kindergarten absolutely dripping with negative learned behavior that he doesn't normally exhibit ("joking" punching, etc.) Takes him about 45 minutes to an hour to decompress and get back to "normal", and then it starts all over again the next day.

But then, I can't really prove that his polite, respectful behavior DOESN'T rub off on his fellow 5YO rugrats. Maybe it does! :D

2. Well, because the highest percentage of time a little brat spends
is with his/her clueless parents!
