It sounds like some of both. There are a lot of little snowflakes out there that would never be bad. There are some teachers that cannot handle small kids.
But I see a lot more children now that do not know what no means.
Two quick examples. A friend of mine, said his son wanted to buy the latest video game for $10. Turns out a neighbor had a copy of a video for sale for $10, retailed for $69.95. The neighbors mom, when informed, said my son would not do that. End of story.
At a boy scout meeting, a cub scout hit a girl for no reason. His mother said, now you know better than that. Ten minutes later when he did it again, his mother said, now _____, don’t do that again or I will get mad!
Another special needs student!
He is actually a special needs student, because of dysfunctional parents that cannot teach their children about boundaries.
