I think it has been butchered over time the same reason we have begun raising children to think they are the super best-est at everything they do even when (if not especially when) they SUCK at it lol. We've gone so far into this movement of children first that we are, in my strong opinion, setting them up to fail miserably when they are adults. No, you don't deserve a sticker when you get 1 out of 10 on your spelling test. No, you don't get to win every game you play to prevent you from crying and feeling bad about yourself. Yes we should celebrate children's strengths and make them feel good about themselves but they need to know they suck at other things and that if they don't try they won't ever improve. Children need to know that they upset, disappoint and hurt others other wise we are just raising about of uncaring narcissistic terrors that will someday rule our world (Lord help us).

I'm only 33 but I can't help but wonder how far society is going to stoop (and suck) before we start to swing back to a reasonable place! Where we raise children with expectations and boundaries.

Lol!! So true and what worries me that most is that's the generation that will be taking caring of me at the nursing home (in this order exactly)
