LOL- I have to say, if you wanted to ship Megan to my grandmother's, my grandmother would have her cured of this entitlement attitude in about two weeks :P
Not saying I agree with everything my grandmother did raising me, not in the least, but by the age of five if I made a mess I knew it was mine to clean up and not someone else's responsibility.
Just listening to other folks talk about their kids and even the attitude of people I grew up with- it just astounds me the sense of entitlement and how every personal failure is obviously someone else's fault... I just don't get it.
And that list you posted- no wonder kids grow up useless and helpless if, like you said, it seems the powers that be want the world childproofed instead of 'worldproofing' your kids. You should get a medal not have to be worried about child protective services!
