[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m amazed how many kids are so coddled. The parents do everything and anything for them. I’m not even sure I would call them spoiled. They are often only children or the baby of the family or the kid who doesn’t want to do things for themselves. They almost always have very aggressive type a type parents. Do these kids become failure to launch? The kids seem so dependent on their parents in a very negative way.[/quote] I see the same in my Title 1 school. I've never seen helicopter parents like there. So many of them carry their kids from the car to the school door. Many push past me on the way in because they think their kids don't know where their classroom is or how to put stuff away in their locker. Others stand at the door and shout instructions for their kid to take off their cost, hang it in their locker, etc. Before Covid, parents would come into the cafeteria at lunch and spoon feed (literally) their pre-k and kindergarten students breakfast and lunch. The boys in pre-k and kindergarten come out of the bathroom with their pants around their ankles because their moms pull their pants up for them. I'm not kidding.[/quote]
