You lose at baseball game and get tenth place, you get a trophy. You suck at math, someone holds your hand and gives you a cookie and tells you it's ok. You don't want to go to work, you don't have too. My parents beat my fucking ass when I did things wrong. You know what I learned values from it. When I lost a wrestling match, my parents told me to practice harder and sacrifice things for it. Put more time in. No one rewarded me for losing. This society is 100% fucked when it comes to raising kids these days. Gone are the days of disciplining kids. You beat a kid these days and you will go to prison. Now they take them to the shrink and pump them full of pharmaceuticals. Then when they short circuit and blow the fuck up no one can understand why? Welcome to the United States of Entitlement. I see it every day, and it is going to get worse folks. Nutbag kids kill people, not guns.

All true.
You forgot to mention the high percentage of kids now being warehoused in 'day care' and 'raised' by incompetent minimum wage caretakers. Families financially unable to have either parent stay home are now having both adults at work 5+ days per week while their kids go to daycare at two or three months of age and become institutionalized toddlers who are praised for being lethargic and 'easy to manage' or derided for being creative, outspoken or energetic. There is no substitute for having one or both parents present and actively programming their child during the first few years of life. Handing your kid over to an orderly at a day care who you would never have considered raising kids with is a recipe for disaster.
