Ungrateful Teenager In My House

This is an interesting article in today's Courant about parents using Facebook to vent about their teens: http://www.courant.com/features/hc-hartfordfacebook1118.artnov18,0,2160735.story.

I think it raises a number of interesting points: should social networking be used in this way, are teens today different, or is this just part of a developmental phase, and how can parents instill the kinds of values in their children that they would like to see them carry into adulthood? 

I don't know what the answers are to these questions, but I think this provides a great opportunity to explore this with other parents, and with your kids.  What do you think; are teens today just too entitled and basically ungrateful?
