[quote=Anonymous]Everyone is right -- the problem is higher standards for parents AND a move toward dual-income households. We did both at once. We expect parents to parent as though they have nothing but time and endless patience and limitless resources but at the same time it's almost impossible to afford a middle class lifestyle on a single income so most parents work. No wonder parents are struggling. What would be great is if we could keep the good shifts in parenting (toward actually caring about and spending time with your kids instead of ignoring them and hitting them) but get rid of the other stuff. I am skeptical this will happen any time soon though.[/quote]
