People having kids now suck at parenting...

I know a couple sets of parents who both have 4-year old boys.
They are extremely small for their size because they eat whatever they want.

I was on a week-long vacation and this kid ate a piece of bread with cheese sprinkled on it for lunch.
Same thing for dinner. No breakfast.

No push to eat meat or vegetables from the parents.
The night we ordered pizza the kids at the cheese off of the pizza.
I just don't understand. These kids OWN the parents. They do and eat whatever the fuck they want.

"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers." -Socrates
