I consider this a natural effect of a generation raised to be given self-esteem boosts without accountability. Now, when they are faced with a situation they can't/don't want to handle, they are unable to deal with feeling inadequate to the task, so they look for scapegoats. The sooner we start teaching kids again to get the hell over themselves, that it's fine to be a unique individual, but that doesn't mean they aren't responsible for their behavior - the better.

I can read about other people's Chinese sign, but not my own (unless I sign up - which I refuse to do). I like to see how different sources describe the same thing.
