Complaints

I often hear others complain about "kids these days". I see people posting things on Facebook about how when we were young we went outside to play and rode bikes. We didn't have cell phones we actually talked on a land line and gasp....we had dial up Internet not wifi. These people complain about how spoiled kids are, how entitled kids are and how they don't know how to work.
I have this to say to those complaints....aren't we the parents of these kids? Who is buying these kids cell phones and ipads? Who is allowing these kids to play video games all day? Isn't it us? If we don't like the way this generation is being raised then shouldn't we raise our children differently?
I know we are only responsible for our children and not all of the kids of the world but couldn't the change start with just our kids?
