I have not.

But I do agree that some parents need to understand the idea is to help your kids learn how to exist in a world that is (I think) very fluid and much more difficult that the world I grew up in. They need to understand they are going to live in a global world, and the ability to understand the way the world they are living in works, is a great advantage.

Just making it easier by bailing kids out of every problem they face, will hurt them in the long run. just my pesos worth.
