I am wondering if the "xiao huangdi" that are now ready to graduate from high school are going to create more of a problem for China than many of its citizens realize. The ones I have encountered over the last 3 years are hardly anything for the overly protective parents to be proud of. They have an huge sense of entitlement, are absolutely terrified of hard work, dishonest and "pansified" beyond belief!

It is a shared opinion in my workplace that the parents of these children have "loved them to death." In doing so they have created demons they can no longer tolerate. Or stomach. Plainly and simply, they despise the monsters they have created.

Will these spoiled children go overseas,gain an expensive university education and then lead China's charge into the future? Hardly!

We have joke at work. A scenario:

Someone is talking to an only child of rich parents. "Do you really plan on
living at home for the rest of your life and having your parents support you?"

Response: "Well, yeah! And your point is...?"
