Okay, you should've titled the thread,
"Why I hate spoiled little punks, and why their parents are idiots." Seriously, I know exactly what you're talking about. Some kids just don't get it, and I FULLY blame their parents for not instilling some level of responsibility into them. I never understood for the longest time why my mum was always saying, "you've got to be more responsible!" Well, low and behold, at 21 years old, I finally understand.....actually, I'll be a smart-arse and say I understood why at about 19.
It seems like there is a society of losers being bred on purpose out there these days, especially when you see this crap happen on a daily basis. Okay, when I was that age, I did some dumb stuff, but that was it: dumb. No one got hurt, arrested, shot, killed, or their property damaged....unless you consider TP and smashed-up garbage cans real destruction of property; I call it collateral damage.
When I F-ed up, I knew it, and my parents made DAMN sure I knew it!!! Good 'rents always know what's up, BTW. To conclude my rant, I'll say flat-out *giving* a new car to a fresh driver without any responsibility or conscience is about as dumb as it gets.
