It's Not Right!

I’d like to congratulate Jamie Lee Curtis for speaking up (er, writing) on The Huffington Post.  Her topic of conversation was parenting, and her illustration was the lament of Paris Hilton to her mother, “It’s not right!” as jailors began taking her to prison.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jamie-lee-curtis/mom-its-not-right_b_51507.html

Said Jamie Lee, “It was a painful episode to watch. A young woman, begging her mother, the person who should have taught her right from wrong, to help her, to teach her the rules of life. It was a little too late.”

Funny, I had been thinking the same thing.  I remember watching a news show about the Hiltons.  There was a video of a pre-teen Paris dancing (scantily clad) on a table, gyrating her hips.  And her parents were at the table!  Here is where a parent would normally say, “It’s not right.”

Reality gets skewed when parents have an anything-goes approach to parenting.  I hate to generalize, but it sure seems like today’s kids walk around with an air of omnipotence.  And I suppose if their parents never say “no,” why shouldn’t they have an exaggerated sense of themselves?

 

It’s time to rein in children.  It's time to say, no (without caving in later).  They need to learn they can’t have everything, especially their freedom if they break the law.  That just isn't right.
