[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Controversial take here but most of the jerk kids I know have very nice parents who practice a little too much benign neglect. They work A LOT. They aren't around to supervise screen time and there's a ton of it. They don't like to be harsh disciplinarians because they already get so little time with their kids. The kids are mostly raised by an indulgent grandma or nanny. The true jerk parents I can think of tend to be very hard on their kids, who often end up nicer than their parents. [/quote] +1 At its not just parents that are too busy. Some parents just don't want to enforce good behavior so they brush it off when their kids act badly. I know one mom that spends alot of time with her kids and has them doing volunteer work and talks alot about being kind and inclusive but her daughter is a mean girl and she brushes off alot of her behavior.
