It does seem the younger generation is overly catered to. I guess I pretty much weed out the particular parents up front. I just email them a copy of my policy. If they think they can live with that, then we can continue. If they don’t, then there’s no need to call me back. Maybe that’s why I don’t have a full house? I’d rather be broke than driving myself nuts trying to please people who can’t be pleased.

I experience it more outside daycare, especially with my teen kids’ friends and their parents. I’m on the older side. Didn’t have my first child until my mid 30’s. My kids’ friends think my kids are unique because I give them chores and have expectations of them. Parents think it weird I make my children help clean the house and do yard work in exchange for their privileges (iPhones, television, etc.).

I’m not going to live forever. The kids need to learn to help themselves.
