Parents who can't accept that their precious babies aren't exceptional in every way. Ever notice that no one's kids are average anymore? Coddled children grow up to be entitled adults.sisterpoet says,
Children who have been told whatever they do, it is ok. Well sometimes it is wrong. There is such a thing as right and wrong. Not everything can be justified. We have lost that in our land of gray.marymc says,
I blame sports trophies for showing up. My kid was 5 and played football. They lost every game because the coach had all these elaborate plays and the kids had the attention span of gnats. The season ends and the team mom asks for trophy and party money. Afterward, I asked my kid what he liked best about playing football and he said, "We get doughnuts and cider at halftime."
