That is beyond words disturbing.

WTF is wrong with kids these days? Look at the parents, or their lack thereof parenting skills. Most want to be friends with their spawn, not taking any responsibility.

exactly. parents who are spoiled brats, who never learned sacrificing what YOU want for your kids, while never teaching their kids that they're not the center of the universe (guilt for lack of sacrifice) is what produces little shits like that. you don't see many parents today, and this is simply my observation in public places, who teach their children that good manners mean putting the comfort of everyone around you first. you don't see too many parents consistently tell toddlers to say please and thank you to the waitress. you see parents in stores that let their children run around the store (mommy's shopping time is important because mommy's more important than the world too!!) and don't remove them from the store when they become a disturbance. you are also seeing the first generation of children whose behavior has been modified by medication begin to grow up. sure, they can sit for hours at the xbox, but not two minutes in the classroom, and the parents are to lazy/guilty to discipline them, so onto meds they go. as teenagers, they've been used to being medicated since first or second grade, but now, they rebel, and stop taking them. no one seems to question the change that may have caused in brain chemistry over the years. i think we're seeing only the beginning of what's going to happen.
