- Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it :
Too many parents these days can’t say no. As a result, they find themselves raising children who respond greedily to the advertisements aimed right at them. Even getting what they want doesn’t satisfy same kids; they only want more. Now a growing number of psychologists, educators and parents think it’s time to stop the madness and start teaching kids about what are really important values like hard work contentment, honesty and compassion. The struggle to set limits has never been tougher and the stakes have never been higher.
One recent study of adults, who were over- indulged as children, paints discouraging picture of their future; when given too much too soon, they grow up to be adults who have difficulty coping with life’s disappointments. They also have a distorted sense of entitlement that gets in the way of success in workplace and in relationships. Psychologists say that parents who overindulge their kids set them up to be more vulnerable to future anxiety and depression. Today’s parents themselves raised on values of thrift and self-sacrifice, grew up in a culture where ‘no’ was a household word. Today’s kids want much more, partly because there is so much more to want. The oldest members of this “Generation Excess’ were born in the late 80s, just as PCs and video games were making assault on the family room. They think of MP3 players and flat screen TV as essential utilities and they have developed strategies to get them. Our survey of teenagers found that when they crave something new, most expect to ask nine times before their parent give in. By every measure, parents are shelling out record amounts. In the heart of buying blitz, even parent who desperately need to say no find themselves reaching for their credit cards.
