2. Saw an article today that claimed parents are spending an average of 11 hours a day on their smart phones. No time to raise the kids!
3. An absurd need to have a $500,000 home and a $70,000 suburban to put in the garage. It takes two incomes most of the time and the kids aren't being raised by their parents, but by hired mercenaries. You get what you pay for!
4. A focus on "high order thinking skills" in place of actual drilling and memorizing of materials.

7. Kids raising kids. You shouldn't be a grandparent at 30.
