Society in general turned children into these little cult objects that should be worshipped and coddled and it's created a real problem.

Yeah I think that is good and bad. There isn't a one size fits all. Some kids will take advantage of that and become lazy and/or act out. Some kids need the coddling to succeed. Others need the scolding. I think the one size fits all approach is not the best method.
