I saw the headline on my homepage but figured that I would probably throw up if I actually read the article...any teenager who gets a car as a gift needs to be the most thankful person in the world for the life that God has given them.

I'm happy with my $500 POS that my mom mustered up the money to buy for me (i'll be paying her back regardless).

1. I would slap the hell out of her for being an insensitive spoiled little brat 2. I would slap the hell out of the mother for no slapping her daughter years ago 3. I would have shoved the cake in her spoiled little (er fat) face |

She is 15 yrs old, she has another yr till she could drive. Her mother is pretty fkn stupid to buy a 15yr old high matienance little bitch that $65,000 car. I wonder what she would bitch and moan about when she turns 16... Another $65,000 new car? Hell no. |

alright I've watched enough of it...so it wasn't that she didn't want the car, it was that she didn't want it on THAT particular day...probably because she wanted to show all of her friends at her massive party. Wow dude...and now the whole school is going to know that you are not only a cry baby, you're a huge show off who only cares about material wealth..congrats!

Any parent who raises a child like that deserves every bit of abuse the kid gives them, she didn't spoil herself.

Surreal. I had to work, and save up all the money for my first car, as well as plates and insurance. I can't even begin to fathom how a child would develop that much of a sense of entitlement. Ah, well, camwhores don't grow on trees, I guess. |

I sound more like someones grandfather everytime I start talking on this topic.... but screw it... Teenagers today have absolutely no idea of decency, morals, values and work ethic. (generally speaking) They are handed so much stuff on a platter that this example is very nearly the norm rather than the exception. I was teaching in a high school a few years back and I took 6 months of to tour SE Asia, when I came back I started by saying to my class "I have to warn you, the kinds of petulant outbursts I tolerated about not having the right colour Ipod cover before, will no longer be tolerated". At that same time I ceased all efforts to chase wealth in life. After seeing how 2/3 of the world population struggles and does it with a smile on their face it changed me forever. I coined a saying for myself about 12 months ago that I get to use more and more these days. "There are few things more annoying and pathetic on this planet than teenage girls". As a 41 year old guy.... I wouldnt have anything to do with them. Give me a 30+ year old woman with an idea of who she is anyday, in preference to some bimbo with an intelect formed from watching commercial TV and reading magazines about Paris and Brittany..... I just hope they show her that vid after shes about 25+ and her brain has hopefully activated (although Im not sure it will have). That will be punishment enough. I despair for the next generation I really do.... +-+-+-+-+-+ |

Originally posted by Razorback Very well said and, unfortunately, so very, very true. Kids today are in for a rude awakening when they step foot in the real world. "If we don't attack them, they will attack us first. So we'd better retaliate before they have a chance to strike" |

You do actually sound like someones grandfather, couldn't believe it at first, but... I don't really despair for the next generation, they can think themselves. I don't think the society affects teenagers as much as some think, they can think outside the things the society teach them. They understand that it's not always as TV shows show. I just think the teenagers you usually see are in their worst phase, they will get better and grow up to become fully functional members of the society. Teenagers are just acting like idiots because they know the society expects them to act like that; But they also know that when they grow up they must become more mature and can't act like an idiot all the time. |
