bullshite. This want that long ago.

My dad forced me to earn anything of value. Yeah I lived a somewhat spoiled life but I still worked my arse off.

My daughter will have a car but only because I already own it already. I built it, she will be forced to love it and drive it. If she doesn't like it, she can buy her own.

I asked a coworker recently if his son(12) would be interested in laying some pin straw for money while his dad was over at my house. He laughed. Said his son thinks he can make $100 washing cars even though he hasn't yet.

This is what is wrong with kids. My family had lots of money. But I was always forced to work to buy anything of value. I didn't do chores etc... I worked.

You're missing my point.

I'm not saying "times have changed, so kids should be pampered", I'm saying, "times have changed - the things you could afford with the work you did won't pay for anything near that these days."
