Today's parents think that protecting a child is the most important thing. A record of misbehavior might negatively effect the child's ability to be accepted by an elite school and make gobs of money, so they sue, or whatever, so that the child is not penalized for bad behavior. The next thing you know, you have a thrity-year-old who thinks that they can do whatever they want without reprocussions - Mommy and Daddy will take care of it.
