Who’s Responsible For The Spoiled Children Syndrome?

Let's face it, both parents and children have a tough row to hoe when it comes to parents instructing and guiding children, as well as the kids trying to figure out what's expected of them. When you hear the phrase, 'spoiled children', what thoughts immediately follow? “Parents spoil their children too much these days.” “Those grandparents are responsible for those spoiled children's behavior!” “Kids are so used to getting what they want, no wonder they're so spoiled.” “There's so little discipline in the schools – these spoiled kids do whatever they want.” The litany of remarks you might hear or think on the subject is almost endless. In fact, there may be a bit of truth in all of these comments.
