[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think moms these days think by doing everything for their kids, they are being "good" moms when actually they are not allowing their kids to learn, make mistakes, guide them but not correct them etc...  It is one thing to make lunches for little kids and here and now for older kids. But just the way society is lately. This parenting style of not allowing kids to go anywhere, picking out perfectly matched clothes for them, deciding sports, cleaning for them, doing school projects and yes making all their food, lunches, laundry etc...  There is no real life learning going on in their heads. No independence, appreciation, understanding what others do. A lot of selfishness in our younger generations. But really, the parents are to blame. [/quote]

I disagree.  I made my child's lunch through high school, did his laundry, etc.  He had other chores we expected him to do.  He is now a very independent college student, fully capable of doing his own laundry at school and taking care of himself.  Different strokes... right?[/quote]
