[quote=Anonymous]When parenting moved away from harsh tactics, the level of placating kept going up and up. The snacks, the water bottles, the enrichment activities, the indoor play places, the stickers etc etc etc. So children expect to be placated and catered to. Because that’s what pediatricians and child psychologists told us to do. Schools have converted to entertaining (oh excuse me, they call it “engagement”). How’s that working out? I’m not saying go back to the old way but how the heck do you raise a not entitled kid these days? I’ve got chores and let them be bored but after that? [/quote]
