I think one thing this article fails to mention is the selfish, superficial nature of the current generation, with their overly inflated sense of entitlement - especially the girls. Have you talked to any twentysomethings lately? Their brains are mush from too much television, too much computers and video games. What happened to being a kid? Playing sports, trying to form a band, having a paper route? Instead they sit in front of the telly hours on end.

Speak for your own kids Kemosabi. My daughters worked all during college. Waitressing in one case, at a vet clinic in the other. Older one is 30 and has a JD, younger one is almost 25 and has an M.S. They are solid responsible citizens, albeit with a few notions their Dad finds a bit strange.

Fair enough, perhaps I am too harsh, but I come from a rich area. Maybe I have the blinders on, because the majority of the kids that I would know would fit the description of being selfish and with a overblown sense of entitlement. BUt like I said, I come from a well to do area.
