Good morning! :-) I’ve been discussing parenting with some good folks recently.. And one of the issues that came up is, why is it that parents of our generation seem to want to give our kids everything they “want”? Is it guilt? Is it the new way of “keeping up with the Joneses”? I heard a Clinical Psychologist say recently that he is “thankful for the boredom of his youth”.. because it was in those times that he was most creative. Kids today are over stimulated with all the gadgets and gizmos that we go into heavy debt to buy them. Parents today seem to want to give kids everything they want, and not enough of what they need.. like discipline, study time, down time, chores, time together in just sharing joy and laughter. These are just some of the things that came to mind.. Feel free to share your thoughts. Have a wonderful day!
