Old people complaining about young people, what's new in the world?
I read the article as an indictment against the older generation - overall anyway.

34. The average high school boy spends two hours watching pornography every single week.
Like old people wouldn't have done this too if watching porn was this easy in the 60's.
Too many friend-parents out there.

This. It's great to be friends with your kids and have a good relationship with them, but you need to be a parent first, even if it means being upopular with your kids at times.

I can't tell you how often my wife and I fight about this. Frankly, it bugs the **** out of me that my kids will always hate me deep down, but my wife takes little to no action with regards to discipline, which means I get to do it all. Oh well.
Lame. It took some time but my wife came around after being raised in an enabling home. No question she is the more compassionate which is good but she doesn't get run over either. She's probably at the perfect level while I definitely err on the side of discipline but screw being one of those parents who worry too much about friending their kid. No thanks losers.I can't tell you how often my wife and I fight about this.

As they get older, their appreciation for you will only grow more and more. I know personally, my father was always the friendlier, more passive parent; whereas my mum was the hardass, who would find any slight imperfection and resort to punishment (including physical). Still gives me **** on a regular basis, but its largely because she has insane high expectations for her children. Despite all of this, I love her, and get along with her and understand her more than my father. Tough love is the sort of love you don't understand at the time, but you appreciate it that much more as you get a bit older.
I certainly know what sort of parent I will be. Im pretty much a walking clone of my mum. Most-certainly will give my kids **** on a regular basis if I ever as so much smell that theyre dogging it in any way whatsoever
