Oh, my dog, don't get me started... My daughter is 11 and the horror stories I could tell you. Sometimes I wonder if we should have parenting licenses, like we do for driving. Wait, bad example...
But yeah, the phones are a problem, the rampant narcissism that seems to have infected society doesn't help. I have a friend that has about a billion pictures posted on Instagram with her baby (who's about 10 months old, something like that), but she's incapable of realising when the kid needs discipline, when she needs cuddling, when she needs attention, etc.
It's really frustrating to watch, because I want to yell at her, but I obviously don't say anything.
And the "let's not vaccinate our kids" insanity has reached Brazil as well, so now I have to contend with that brand of absurdity, which I thought I had escaped once I left California.
Honestly, sometimes I just want to ask for the world to stop so I can get out...
I really think that if people that were of fighting age around WWII were around today, they would think we have all become retarded.
