Do you have any reasons for why you think this? Also, how do you define "today's" parents? For example, my parents are in their 50's, but I'm still living at home. Are they too old to be "today's" parents?

Personally I think every generation will have good and bad parents. I can think of plenty of good and bad parents from both this generation and from older generations, so this seems like an extreme generalization to me.

Gee, right between Mother's Day and Father's Day. Do your own parents know what you think on the subject, and if so what do they think? Or are you making an exception for them, and basing your remark just on your experience with other people's parents?

I guess i suck then... I have a 20 17 and 7 year old.  I agree there are good and bad parents in each generation.  Parents do need to be parents and not friends until their kids are adults
