    The Age of Entitlement

    I was reminded of this thread when I recently saw Wes Anderson's film The Darjeeling Limited. I've enjoyed WE's films but this one left me more cold than not. The film had all the hallmark Anderson visual, character, casting, and musical touches. I couldn't get beyond the three main...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Casting based on celebrity drama...It's good to see some things never change. ;) As much I as enjoy Huston's film I hate the female casting and how the studio removed any sexuality from his version. The femme fatale is the lynchpin for the story and Huston's version has minimal sexual...

    Helicopter Parenting Raises Dependent Children

    Of course. Cost is relative to location, income, living condition, etc. I was just adding fodder to the discussion. My wife and I only have one child. It would have been harder to send more than one to a private school.

    Helicopter Parenting Raises Dependent Children

    I'd say it's not so much the money but the motivation behind the cash. My wife and I have always worked full time. We paid roughly 10k a year (in the late 90s) sending our son to a Montessori school. We chose the school due to it's location, educational approach, but mostly the love and care...

    They're flip sides of the same bad coin! Thank goodness the suit was dismissed.

    Helicopter Parenting Raises Dependent Children

    Once in a while there is an article in The New York Times or New Yorker about local moms who obsess about what pre-school their babies are going to attend. These moms seem adamant their infants are Ivy Leage material. Priviate schools exploit these expectations. Here is one example that...

    What are your hobbies?

    I've recently become interested in leather-working and am fumbling my way in this new hobby.

    Helicopter Parenting Raises Dependent Children

    Having raised a child and been around and involved in the school system, church, Boy Scouts, and team sports, I'll unequivocally state I don't buy this. I can say I've observed a child or two whose parent hovered to the point of limiting the child's emotional/intellectual growth. I'll take a...

    Great job on the suit! Once you finalized the pattern how long did it take to finish the suit?

    The Age of Entitlement

    That is some story! It's nothing new that celebrities and rich folk get away with a lot compared to us little people. Using that kind of language on the street may find one with a well-deserved beat down..

    The Age of Entitlement

    To a large degree yes. I think a point here is those poking fun at the images are absolutely not wealthy Gilded Age Industrialists or Russian, French aristocrats/landed gentry, etc. Most of the critics are probably a couple of paychecks from going under. It is not a matter of rich knocking...
