Strawberry generation

These spoiled children will have increasing difficulty dealing with their peers and later with their colleagues and bosses. Saying "No!" imposes limits on children, which they will have to cope with later in life. Constant showering of gifts and goodies gives children an inability to set limits on their spending and on their expectations of friendships and other relationships.

Perhaps it is time for parents to allow children some space to fend for themselves and face life as it really is. There is no dignity in being given everything. We know best what we learn for ourselves, and we appreciate most what we earn for ourselves.
