We're pretty fucked.
It doesn't help when school divisions bend over backwards to avoid lawsuits because Little Billy is special ('cause Mommy says so!) and you cannot fail him! The teachers are clearly picking on him! And stop marking with red pen, it's damaging to children's egos! etc...

A huge problem is the parents instilling this idea on their children that they're special while at the same time neglecting to raise them properly and leaving that job for the TV and/or video games. Parents don't care like they used to.
