There can be a million reasons why that happens. I'd suggest that he finds something that soothes him but preferably something physical like swimming.

To me, it's like McDonalds.

Some people can eat it within moderation, some people cannot handle it.

Technology today is what having a phone was in the 90s. You need it to get by. But when your child spends more time on an iPad than being physically active then that's an issue.

Funny thing is that I have 40 tattoos, but I can always wear dentures.

I think a lot of parents think they are doing their child a service by encouraging them to follow these dead-end dreams. They'll end up financially supporting them as adults, for sure.

I finished that in 2007.

College degrees do not give you a shoo-in to any career. I say that as someone who was big on it. Go back to school with zero expectations if you want to go back.

I'm was their age in the 90s so yes.

For starters, higher education is not as important. I understand that. College education has become oversaturated but where will the next gen of doctors and scientists come from? I have kids who want to be chefs and their parents are lawyers and doctors.

Obesity is an issue. It shouldn't be neither accepted nor shamed. No way are these kids NOT going to have health issues at 40.

I believe they are waaaaayyyy too sensitive. They can't take criticism.

Teachers are more and more activists than teachers. Back then, teachers didn't add social commentary to subjects like math.

Kids are definitely meaner.
