What I remember is that in the '90s 'experts' encouraged participation medal parenting: positive reinforcement- no negative consequence, all praise child rearing. So most parents jumped into this bandwagon.After a decade, we are screwed as same experts say this approach produces self- entitled, mediocre kind of brats. However, there are studies too as well that shows decrease in teen pregnancy and abuse of drugs/ alcohol with the younger generation. I do not know who to believe anymore.

I think that it's a mix of both. The whole don't discipline your kids studies actually started back in the 60s even though we stereotype it with the newer generations. Birth rates with newer generations are decreasing drastically in all age groups because we're spending 200% more on education than any generation before us and therefore we're in more debt and having a harder time getting jobs with our degrees.

The worst generation? Probably when the Gen z kids start going to school. The parents and kids will be offended by everything

As a gen z, I agree with you. This isn't going in the best direction.
