[quote=Anonymous]A month ago, sitting at the airport, DH realized he forgot a paper he needed for a conference in his home office. I went out of my way FedEx it to him when he asked. Does that make him an entitled baby or just human? Do you kids act spoiled in other ways? Are they never willing to do anything for themselves? Do they expect you to do everything? Bring them papers/PE clothes/permissions slips when they forget (all the time), etc.? Or was this a one off event? Just basing it on dynamics from my own house with young teens/pre-teens, I suspect they were angry when you said you wouldn't drive and were then in no mood to listen to your advice about what to wear. Does that make them entitled brats or kids who are still learning to manage their emotions and reactions? Not everything is a life lesson and "coddling" them now and then won't make them entitled 30 year olds who only want to live in your basement and play Xbox. :) [/quote]
