1) no one who's mentioned your chosen future profession has flamed you for it. no one has said anything bad about it. if you think waht has been said are flames, you need to get thicker skin, otherwise you really won't make it in the real world.

2) in your last post, you state taht you were expecting people to reference your chosen profession, "instead of providing support for their arguments." you have provided no support what-so-ever for your arguments, all you've done is made blanket statements and accusations about all parents, adding a line or two that there are some good ones, but all you see is bad (outside of your last post, where yoru statement doesn't really back up previous posts) you keep making assumptions of things and blanketing them. well, all you've been giving examples of are worst case senario's and cases where the kids don't get what they want and have everything spelled out exactly for them (which is horrible, it's abuse!). hate to break it to you buddy, not only does the world not work that way, if parents did that then kids would be leaving the house and getting hit by a hard reality.

3) do you have an anger issue? reading your posts, it seems like it. have you been civil? yes. but there is an underlying tension, an underlying vibe of "i hate my fucking parents, they didn't give me everything i want and do things my way, fuck them, fuck them, fuck them." maybe we're wrong, but that's what your posts seem to be saying.

4) you say "I still have yet to see a complete line of reasonable defenses on why so-called "tough parenting" works, or why there seems to be so much hostility directed at youth." i have yet to see anythign that says "tough parenting" doesn't work, nor do i see any hostility towards youth in amounts that are more than negligable.
