Hi, I am a doctor and find this argument amusing. I have come across many young adults nowadays in my practice who are maladjusted because of over indulgence by their parents. Discipline is a must and some children only need to be told to follow it. Others require more harsh measures. It may seem cruel, but we live in a harsh world and on growing up, they will learn that values taught while young hold them in good stead in their adulthood. Otherwise we will create a generation just like the Americans, just wanting instant gratification of desires and no sense of family and community spirit.
