Need to have parents that instead of just giving kids their phones and money just for breathing/pouting, actually make them get jovs and work for things.

I wonder if CPS now considers that child abuse. I started working at 13.

Amazes me when visiting some homes that the teens do not even pick up after themselves, help with the cooking, set the table for dinner or load the dishwasher.

My grandsons do help with these things and when they grumble about having to load the dishwasher they get a chance to wash and dry the dishes by hand and put them away. They also know how to dust, vacuum and do their own laundry. My son tells them he is responsible for raising them so they can function independently, not be their friend. Am sure that CPS in some states would consider his treatment abusive.
