If you're a person that holds yourself up to a certain set of standards even if nobody is forcing you to so, then you might expect your kids to do the same.
I don't think it's limited to one class or another. It's just attitude.
I think it's more a matter of perspective. I don't do those things because I know they're not right, it's just automatic.
But a kid has to learn those things aren't right...they can't automatically know unless there are some consequences. You can't say "don't do that 'cause it's not right"...they'll just think "WTF does that mean?".
It's like trying to teach a blind person to differentiate between colors.
