its just gone too far though, i remember when my mum told off my litttle brother the other day we also got death stares -.-

Yeah it very much depends on who you know I guess

I know quite a few teen mums, most (who I know) just let their kids do whatever they like so they are total brats.

On the other hand, I do know one who is only 17 and she is the best mum I have ever seen, so attentive but strict at the same time, and her child (who is actually nearing the end of the terrible twos) is so well behaved.
