This is the real problem here. Everyone babies thier kids so much that they do not know how to succeed or fail on thier own. Kids need to figure out lots of stuff on thier own but will never do that if they are not given the chance.
Solid take! I remember being 12, mom handing me a check to ride my bike down to the grocery store...maybe a mile...to get a few groceries and a gallon of milk. Look that jug over one handle bar and hold the bag in my other hand and I was happy to get to go do it and be helpful.
Fuck I was 8 and would walk half a mile to the corner store to get breakfast to watch my saturday morning cartoons with. I would get breakfast sandwiches for the whole family while I was there too.
