1. The economy has changed so that a school eductaion has become more important.
2. The idea of children as being fundamentally different from adults (as opposed simply to being smaller, less knowledgable beings) has come about, so that children have become the object of sentimentality.

No discipline without becoming the target of "child abuse" activist. Parents are not spending as much time with their children in order to work and make ends meet. Parents don't set boundaries for their children.

Their feet are on the ground;They are no longer stuck up the chimneys.
They are protected by laws which do not allow them to work or be left unsupervised by an adult under the age of 14.

Children in the past were given more responsiblity.
Children were, for the most part, expected to work more.

Since they took the discipline out of the schools,kids lost respect for all adults.

Because the position of their parents has changed...and the position of the society we live in....ie we are wealthier now, there are benefit systems to help even poor families etc.

i remember 45 years ago, my grandpa wouldn't let us kids eat at his house till the grownups ate first. One time i was doubled up with an empty stomache ache and he threatened me with a belt for crying while they were eating their meal.
