You want the kids kicking your seat on the airplane? Grabbing your arm with their sludgy hands as they run by?
Anyway, the point is, kids should have a baseline respect for the police. Being encouraged in not having it can result in problems for them later, e.g. resisting arrest when they decide to drive really fast and hide when they see the lights go on behind them after they run a red light.

Are you really whiffing this bad? Blind deference to the authoritarian exercise of power is what led to both the Nazis and the Clintons.
I question authority daily and encourage the youth of my charge to do the same. For Christmas last year I bought each of the homeless kids I mentor a taser gun to protect them from the corrupt cops that hassle them on the streets.
