Having taught 10-11 year old students for the last ten years, I too see the steady increase of the "you owe it to me" attitude. I recently had a student question me as to why I circled misspelled words on his paper? When I told him it was because he needed to use a dictionary and look up the correct spelling of the words that were wrong, his response was "What, so you're to lazy to do it, so I have to?" Saddest part of the whole thing is that I know his parents pretty well, and that would have been the response of either of them. I truly believe he thought that was a completely acceptable thing to say, as that is what he hears all the time at home. The whole idea "society owes me something" is ruining our country at a very rapid pace, at least from what I am seeing in rural MN classrooms.
