By coddling people we are breeding a lesser fit human race.
Darwin postulated that adaptation to adverse conditions would result
in survival of the fittest. But we've messed with the natural laws of selection so much that mankind as a whole is no longer advancing with regard to mental and physical health. Not only are things like allergies, asthma, and mental/emotional health problems increasing,
but SAT scores are decreasing.

I think that pretty well describes what we're seeing in the world today...
