[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi OP. I feel like your situation is increasingly common among those under 30. It seems like our society has become so much more affluent compared to the past, and, at the same time, we increasingly try to be “accepting” or diverse or easy-going on every kid. Even to the point where we tell kids any / every failure is fine and it’s probably someone else’s fault. So I do nt think you are alone in this.[/quote] +1 This coddling isn't exactly a new thing in the US, but it seems to be getting worse. Personal responsibility is a thing of the past for 50% of Americans. If you're fat, it's because of bad genetics. If you hang out with sketchy dudes in a bad neighborhood at night and get robbed it's totally not your fault. Just look at all of the responses from self appointed medical experts claiming that surely these kids have medical issues preventing them from being successful! It's BONKERS and scary.[/quote]
