Why do white people have such trouble with controlling their kids?

I swear, immigrant parents don’t have an issue with that. My Mexican mom just had to slap me and would have my attention lmao. My Asian friend can tell you the same thing, and my African friend still gets hit with a sandal by his mom, even at the age of 23 😂

I know some parents that don't believe in telling their kids no. Funny thing is, giving them everything they want makes them unhappy horrible kids.

I think it is partially a generational thing; older couples are more strict. It's also just parenting styles.

@JimboSaturn Yup. When they have no discipline, and when they're not taught to follow rules, their adult life, doesn't start off well.
