I just read this article on MSN. I think being spoiled is relative. I had a friend who was given her mother's BMW when she was 16. That might be considered spoiled except that her friends were given new Mercedes and Porsches when they were 16. I just had a bus pass when I was 16. *shrug*
I think that snow shoveling might have been a bad example. I remember when I was in college, I saw our next door neighbor, who was a senior citizen, struggling to carry her groceries from her car to her house. I also saw three of my housemates not lifting a finger to help. I walked over and carried her bags inside. She thanked me and gave me cookies. My housemates were surprised that I had helped and said, "You are so nice to help her." I was surprised that it hadn't even entered their minds to help her. And yes, they were spoiled.
