I guess with both parents working they don't have much time to raise their kids. Years ago, not to be sexist, but woman stayed home and they had more grasp on their kids and they were able to teach them good maners.
Also, there's this whole child protection/goverment that goes a bit too far. There's a difference between a spanking for dicipline and beating a kid. I've heard from some really unfair stories about those.
Some parents also show "love" and "appreaciation" to their kids by buying stuff and being really softies with them. Today's parents try to be too much like a friend with them and that's where the limit is crossed. They need to take back their role.
Dicipline is needed and kids need to respect their parents and elders.
Note: There's a limit to everything though, I don't think beating a kid (like using a belt or throwing them in a wall) is in any way acceptable and I do think kids need some respect, just that they need to do the same towards their parents.
