This story defies believability, and should be set in Beverly Hills, not suburban Japan.
However, I totally see this situation coming to a school near you in the future. From overindulgent parenting to a society that cannot let children struggle or, God forbid, FAIL, we are turning our children into entitled, selfish brats.
Or something less harsh and judgmental.

4 of you HAD to say...:
Oh, my gosh. That's just scary. And RIDICULOUS!!!
My 5th grader was just in a school play, and he was stuck in the chorus. He didn't care, I didn't mind, it was no big deal.
These Monster parents are scary. We can't give our children everything. Can you imagine how scary the future will be with these kids in charge?!!
That is just plain effed up, that.
I read the title of that article and laughed out loud. I CANNOT believe it. The headline alone is like a piece in TheOnion.com or a Saturday Night Live sketch. Insane.
Stupid.
