Are kids spoiled?



when i was a kid,dad got me a 20 dollar basketball or a baseball bat or something..a bike if i was lucky..lol...NOW!!,kids want them 500 dollar toys,or a cell phone..sheesh,What up with that?

On one hand they could but on the other hand they may not be...

They Are:

1. They get alot of attention, get what they want when they want, No discipline from parents most of the time in america,

2. There are tons of things even made for 3 year olds that involve electronics. Even baby's have like 3 different carries, bouncy seats and cribs...and not to mention toys and stuff out the wazoo.

3. Kids want cellphones when they are like 7 or older. I'm 13 and I dont even use my cellphone only to get my mom to pick me up from school. Other than that there isnt any other use for it except taking an occasional picture...I dont see why they are so "cool" they are so boring, you dont do anything on it...

4. Kids want to be teenager wannabees at like 8 and up. They are growing up way too fast. They think they have to have everything and dress to the nines to be cool.

5. There are so many electronics out there that cost tons of money and they barely use them. And if they do find something they like they have to have it all the time or they constantly have to be entertained. No more watching the sunset or watching the scenery on a road trip. It's always watching movies, or playing on game systems

They aren't spoiled:

1. Back then we didnt have all those cool gadgets. The "in" thing was barbie dolls and stuff like that. Now the "in" thing is gadgets. So really kids dont have a choice if they want to have simpler games. They are introduced to expensive gaming systems and stuff like that. So really you cant blame them for wanting stuff that our culture now a days uses just like back then the culture was simpler.

2. They dont realize that you have to work for your money. they think it grows on trees so they ask for what ever they want. They dont care what the price is. back then my mom lived on a farm and they did back breaking chores everysingle day. Kids now wouldnt dream of doing those chores. Back then everyone knew how hard money was to get and it was hard work. Now kids just think money is easy to get because they dont do chores and their parents work all day and they dont know how it all works. So really you cant blame them because they dont know that money is earned. And you have to work for it. Back then at young ages kids knew all that stuff because they were a part of it.


That is basically both views on if you think they are spoiled or not...
yea, kids are spoiled... but then again, back then christmas was prolly more about actual christmas instead of becoming a marketing scheme by the big toy companies
dont lie, you kno its true
i think they r spoiled
i think parents cant say no
The world of technology is here. My kids would not know how to have a fun day in the backyard, playing Mother may I? and Red light, and Red rover. I guess we are living in a techno crazed world.
Yes, i think kids are spoiled a lot these days but then i could be wrong maybe not.

they're even considering teenagers to be the ages of 10-18 instead of 13-18!
