Reply to Frequently using digital devices to soothe young children may backfire. The habit of using devices to manage difficult behavior strengthens over time as media demands strengthen as well. The more often devices are used, the less practice children - get to use other coping strategies by Wagamaga
In the past 5 years I’ve seen an increasing number of kids who can’t self regulate and lack basic emotional self-control. I’ve long suspected mobile devices-as-pacifiers might be the reason.

Reply to NC senators propose eliminating participation trophies for youth sports by SpudB0y
“Participation trophies” are nothing new. In the 1949 short Junior Rodeo Daredevils the kids all get participation trophies (awards for tryin’) at the end. Seeing as boomers would only have 3-years-old at the time, I’d suggest this isn’t a modern phenomenon.
