They had to do something when they abolished corporal punishment. Parents who think their kids are precious, sensitive little poppets who are beyond being punished for acting out of line are part of the reason society is going down the pan.

You said it. They don't want their snowflake punished, EVER, but you know they breathe a sigh of relief every morning when that kid heads off to school and the house is "quiet at last!" Because they aren't disciplining them at home either.

Because they aren't disciplining them at home either.

A little discipline at home can be very salubrious.
