The kids in the US seem like dysfunctional spoiled brats in comparison. A few major cultural differences are: the huge prevalence of electronic entertainment in the US, all the working moms, which prevents kids from growing up calmly in their own homes; the loss of kids being able to run around and play outside, and much more. It seems that people in the US have lost the ability to raise kids. Having grown up in the 1950s, I recall that people did not use to have these problems!
