I sooo agree on this. I used to freak out because my hubby's ex-boss used to ask him to do her kids projects, like finding all the info on the net etc. How will those kids EVER make it in the working world if they cannot be self-sufficient or responsible. And in this case you can hardly blame the kids, it's the persons who or doing their kids a disfavour.
Thanks for your reply. It is true that some parents need to let go and let their children try on their own. Independence is really what most educators and parents would like to groom in our pupils to cope with future challenges.
