Kids are spoiled now a days don't you think?

I mean I see these kids in the mall using cell phones thats cost 200 dollars or more with all these features on them. If I was a parent and my kid wanted a cell they would have to pay for it. I understand if you need one for emergency purposes but just to talk on for these kids it stupid. I am not a parent but parents ruin kids today. Not all but a lot. We give me everything they want my cousin for example got a laptop, i pod and clothes for xmas thatis a lot of money for one child. Then when you ask em do something they complain. Kids in the U.S. are spoiled lazy in school and thye do nothing when they come home play video gmaes and watch tv its ashame. I am not trying to be cynical but most of our kids our being ruined.
