wow putting the S in snowflake..another yaboo article Now I will someone about being a "snowflake"...but it seems at times people take this to the extremes.. Yaboo for the past say 3 years has went out of it's way to become more left of left .. it's almost like everyone wants to be like entertainment weekly or time ( have you read a time magazine lately..? ) Anyway yaboo "style" had an article about this 20 something mother that feels she needs to ask her permission to pick him up. Telling the 6 month old that it is his body and she needs to respect his rights to it... I was literally blown away...this is as bad as that actress that play amy fowler on the big bang theory that "naturally" raises her .. meaning she doesn't use diapers and just holds the over the toilet until the job is done... I mean I get helicopter parents.. hell you see them in every walks of life.. I heard daily stories of them from one of my co workers than teaching hitting/runs his own 's baseball team.... For some reason these parents will pay like 3 grand a year for additional hitting instructions..they are delusional that their is special and will make a pro team. hell last night mlb had it's draft.. about 70 will make a team...3 will actually make the big leagues. So what is up with parents now a days? are we harming the with all this participation trophy crap? |

I think for most kids they need love, guidance, inspiration and rules with boundaries. Yes you can have them in every class sports team to make them that "super kid" but in that they are also showing kids getting over stressed and extreme anxiety over the load of schoolwork and activities. They learn what they see. They look to us and adults around us to learn, to shape and inspire what they can be so as parents we really need to look at the message we are presenting in our own actions. I have read articles where they have the child setting the boundaries and rules This I do not agree with I see many parents that give into their children's temper tantrums demands as they are too tired to parent they say. To me this teaches them disrespect of others especially adults, it teaches them they can do what they want when they want with no regard for others or consequences which doesn't really prepare them for the real world ahead and how are the poor teachers supposed to deal with this in a class room setting it will cause. Now don't get me wrong they do need freedoms as well but in my years of parenting I have raised my voice to yell 2-3 times total. Mine will laugh and say it is the tone not the volume that they know trouble...but also mine know the rules and know there are consequences and I stick to those consequences so they know this too. Even if at times it takes something away from everyone not just that child. I limit activites to one to two a year afterschool because honestly kids need to be kids, it is not always about being superstars. If that is what they are meant to be they will get there that will shine through. Just my thoughts on it all.
