Yep - but the kid now has something called "self esteem" which is now defined as feeling good about yourself no matter how lazy, ignorant, or unmotivated you are. No matter what bad things happen, today's child is taught that it is the fault of someone else and there is no such thing as personal responsibility.

"Hey, it is society's fault I am a failure so the world owes me a living."
