thank you for posting. I feel the same way. Yes many kids and parents are crazy! but there are so many kids that are wonderful! smart and kind and creative. These are kids from a variety of situations so I dont think there is just one way to parent. Saying "kids should be spanked" is grossly oversimplifying how and why the world and parenting and kids have changed. I refuse to be one of those people that just give up on kids of the next generation. They deserve better than that! I also think there are way too many old and cranky people that like to complain about "kids these days" as if they were never a pain to anyone when they were little.
I was wild and unsupervised when I was little. Climbing onto the roof and running thru the neighborhood. But now I am all grown and thanks to a number of caregivers that made up for the lack of parenting I received, I am a law abiding citizen with a job, never been arrested or in trouble, I am a college graduate and a mother and a wife. People didn't give up on me. I am not going to give up on my kids or their friends or my own community. Sure I roll my eyes about stuff here and there and remain baffled about parents and kids sometimes but I would just encourage us all to remain hopeful. Dont let this industry **** all the hope from you!
