Society is so unsafe for kids these days that parents, most anyway are over protective, for some good reasons, but still over protective. So most kids are not called upon to do things at early ages like we were. Which for us made us mature and learn early. Most kids sit in front of a tv or video game eating cheeto's until it is time for that heat and eat supper. Parents its the same only it's a tv, of online, or out with freinds like a 21 year old. You know when I turned 16, myself and bout every one I know, worked, everyday. We partied and did the other stupid stuff we all do, but we were for the most part much more mature and responsible than todays 20 somethings. The local and state governments having so much legal say in how you discepline your kids isnt helping either. My oldest daughters mother( 1st long relationship) now has a 14 year old that has pissy attitude about everything, will not do anything. Well, she got in trouble one day for not getting up in time for the bus( the momm works at 5 am, well she was told her arse is grass, well this girl tells her school counselor, now there is a social worker involved and this mother cant spank( which she never really did anyway), yell, threaten with discepline, or physically make her daughter do something, or she could be considered to be abusing her daughter in one way or another. She was told she needs to compromise with her daughter. So when she asked her to do the dishes, the young 14 year old simply says NO, and then proceeds to look at her ma till she does them herself. I learned at 4 not to tell my parents NO, I didnt want to ever know what would happen if I dis obeyed my folks. Now just think what these young people will raise their kids like.
