This is a video request I had earlier today and though I know it will never wake up the communal consciousness of American parents, I hope it helps save some kids. But the short version is this - most parents love themselves more than their children and will think nothing of coasting when it comes to their parental duties, even if it results in a miserable and tortured life for their kids.
I reference "How Not to Become a Millennial" many times in the video because it is germane to the topic of conversation and if you wish to have future generations not become the galactic tortured fuck up of a generation the Millennials have become, I suggest you pick up that book.

I was wondering where he went. Thank you!
DeletePro tip: never take advice on parenting from someone who's never had kids.
ReplyDeleteAmerican parents have been lazy and self-absorbed since at least The "Greatest" [sic] Generation." Each successive generation of parents just kept getting progressively worse until we reached where we are now. God help future generations of American kids.
