My revelation!
I just have to realize you can't control someone's behavior, you can only control yours! That's not to stay i cant teach better behaviors, that's what I strive to do everyday! Believe me this is hard to do, but I just try to give as much praise to the good kids so hopefully the not so good ones will do something to get praise, and at the end of the day it will help me to feel positive because I will remember all the praise verses the negative.

That is a great way to look at it. You are exactly right...you cannot control everybody all the time. The best you can do it model proper behavior and hope they follow suit. I tell my kids all the time that I cannot keep them from making bad choices, but I CAN discipline them for it afterward...
