[quote=Anonymous]I am with OP, I drink coffee made at home, my teen DD wants Starbucks all the time. There is no way she will change once on her own. I hope she will, but hope is slim. It is our fault, for sure, to some extent. I refuse to buy her Starbucks more often than I buy it, but you can see almost all of her school at SB every morning getting coffee, so clearly other parents suports this as well. My BIL is paying a two weeks winter break trip for his college DS to Florida to get scuba certification. No way would my parents or my DH's parents ever pay for anything like that at all. DH worked to pay for his bike at 7 years old with a a weekend paper route. Truth is that new generations are more and more spoiled, and if we are to measure degrees of spoiled, I would say it is increasing more rapidly than in the past. We became pushover parents, who provided at our own expense for our kids, and kids are clueless how to fend for themselves. We are part of the problem. [/quote]
