Many Americans feel kids are growing up too fast. When Throne, Inc. surveyed 888 mothers to identify the reasons why:

• Seventy-five percent said it was because children are being allowed to use the Internet without supervision.
• Seventy-four percent said it was because kids are being allowed to dress in inappropriate clothing.
• Sixty-three percent said it was because parents, guardians, teachers, and other figures of authority are over-scheduling kids.
• Fifty-nine percent said it was because children are being given cell phones at a very early age.
