Re: Do FIRST kids behave better?

I know this thread is ancient............... BUT, I'd like to get some current opinions on this matter. I, for one, am often annoyed by how rudely some students in my team behave when mentors aren't around. From throwing balls in the shop to yelling profanities at others. Of course the way I was raised is a bit different (at least culturally) from most other kids. I've found that disrespect is too often considered "part of growing up", without kids understanding the concept of repercussions of actions. To be fair, no one in my team did anything in our hotel rooms, due to how tired we all were.

How do other teams feel about this? Do FIRST kids still act like any other, or have you noticed they seem to be mature now?
