Some kids today act spoiled if they don't have their own cellphone, $100 tennis shoes, the latest video game system, even their own car given to them when they turn 16

Of course his parents got him a car when he got his license. But he doesn't know how to put air in his tires, or wash his car.
I don't think he cut a lawn in his life, and he probably doesn't know how to use a rake.
No sidewalks in my neighborhood but the driveways are 20 feet wide and at least 100 feet long, had to clean off the cars too. That's a lot of shoveling. I used to ride my bicycle almost 5 miles to cut 2 lawns, but I felt rich when I had that $10 dollars in my pocket.
Of course kids today don't have time to do anything, with music lessons, sports, school, studying, scouts. My nephews kids play hockey, soccer, take piano and violin lessons. His wife wants them to take fiddle lessons, when my other nephew asked what was the difference between a violin and a fiddle I told him it depends on where you pick it up. In Boston it's a violin, in Nashville it's a fiddle.
