I was with my sister picking her kids up from school (elementary) and all the OTHER parents were carrying their kids backpack. I mean A LOT of them. When did kids stop carrying their own backpacks? Is this something new? Do you think its right?
Answer
Because parents want to further pussify their kids.
The schools (in their infinite wisdom) are admittedly loading down even the tiniest of kids with heavy books, but that's still no reason for parents to carry their backpacks 50 feet to their MomMobile. Kids don't even walk any more! They get driven even if home's less than a few blocks, and now they can't even carry their own books to the minivan.
Pathetic. Not the kids, mind, they have no choice. What's pathetic is the parents who create this kind of dependence.
Parents these days won't let kids do anything for themselves because the more a kid does for themselves, the more independent they become, and the more independent they are, the less *control* a parent has on them, and total control over everything (until at least age 18, but usually it's closer to 30 now) is the current aim. It's just a sign of the times that parents can't even allow their kids the independence to carry their own bag.
I don't see it as spoiling at all. I don't think most of the kids want this kind of babying; it's the parents forcing it on them. I know that my kids at least would object if I took something as trivial as being responsible for their own things out of their hands.

Helping a Freshy on High School bags and totes?
Sarah
YES I'm a freshy at Jackson Middle School, and I love to be organized. Im having trouble decided what to use and carry around school. Tote??? or Bag???? Bag for School and a Bag for Personals????? or a mixed bag????? which is better? Im going more towards the bag but again the question to mix the bags or have different ones and I don't know a good place to buy one. I really would like one with interior dividers... and Im already a purseoholic and already told my mom I've picked the BAG not true so anything will help. Thanks for helping a freshy :)

Hey there. I'm becoming a senior! You should not buy bags. Get a northface backpack. It's the best.
The cool kids have it. It's pricey. I recommend north face recon (which is the most popular.. most people have it though). North face borealis. or north face surge (the one i have). ALL three are best sellers.
Girls who wear north face backpacks are cute! It makes you look good. Plus it's good for your back. Trust me.
You should not get bags. I wore bags for 2 1/5 years during my high school year and it was a pain because you have to keep buying new bags. You carry heavy stuff in that bag and it will not last long!
There aren't any cute bags/totes nowadays though tbh.
I hope this helped.
Good luck freshie
