You amuse me at your concept of spelling while you ignore a more important part of communication, grammer and information.
Grammer.
I is allways capitalized when refering to yourself.
The first word of every sentence is also capital.
Words do not get capitalized for no reason within a sentence.
There should be a space between the end of a punctuation mark and the next word, however there should not be a space between the word left of the punctuation mark and the mark itself.
"..." is a mark used to signify that the quoted statment has been abridged. It is currently also used to signify a great pause, however, "..." is not a closure mark and does not signify the end of a sentence.
Information.
There is no "napster" generation. Not only is that an incorrect use of the word generation, as the birth of a new child has nothing to do with napster, but what is implied is incorrect. What is really going on is that we are having a period of time where file sharing is at an all time high.
What you mean to say is the Napster Decade. Note how this refers to time, not people. To include people you need to say Napster Users, as the use of Peer to Peer software is not inclusive in any racial, ethical, or age group.
Further correction would be that Napster is currently not affiliated with Peer to Peer as we know it. The software has been remade to distribute legally sold songs. Taking advantage of the internet by increasing the consumer database for a particular area, and selling cheaper because you no longer have the CD included in the price.
Misrefrencing is also an issue. Use of Peer to Peer software does not incourage arrogance in any manner. If you get right down to it, the parents are at further fault for that kind of behavior then the child. There is no denying that many parents seriously need to adjust to the time period, and I am not talking about using computers.
There use to be a happy little world where everyone was uneducated and could get by without that "edjumikation" as time passed by, the world began calling for more skilled labor. So people learned a little more, and got new jobs. More time passes, once again people learn a little more, and got new jobs. Now as you can see, people are only learning when it affects them, and now we are in an age of immense knowledge, yet not many people take the inituitive to try to learn or understand it.
What happens now is that the CHILDREN are in all sense, actually smarter then their parents. Doesn't mean they are wiser, they just happen to know more. The problem now is that the parent, who CAN learn what they are learning, does not care. If you actually cared about your child you would READ up, learn, the little world you once lived in exists no longer. Even a basic understanding is enough to have a discussion on, or even help.
The problem is, that after the child realises he/she is smarter, your advice falls on deaf ears. In fact, your advice has been falling on deaf ears for quite a while. Hiding the demons of your past while raising a child is a bad way to go.
Your CHILDHOOD should be a refrence on how to work things. You don't walk away while the big kid is clobering you, you stand and fight, it is impossible not to. The mind has two defenses against an attacker, flee or fight. Most of the time you can't flee. So your solution 'walk away' will only serve to separate you from your child. He/she no longer will ask you for advice on the matter because you, litterally, do not understand.
Even your answers to their questions hurts your relationship "Were you ever bad as a child?" "No, I was a perfect angel" sudjests that they are defective, or unlike you. It makes the child feel like they are doing something wrong for being normal. It does incourage them to try to be perfect, but who IS perfect? You put them on a path that they will never follow.
