Is there something wrong with this picture?

Kentucky Fried Chicken has recently put out an ad promoting their "chicken bites". 

The ad begins with "mom" and "dad" confronting their son.  They have some things they need to talk about.  Obviously their twenty-something son still lives at home and spends the day playing video games.  They begin to address the "issues" they have, and start with the "chicken nuggets" he is eating.  It is then the young man is bothered by his dad's accusation telling him that they are "chicken bites" not "chicken nuggets".  The father tastes one and then turns to the woman and says something to the effect, "honey, let's leave this man to do his work." 

Amazingly enough, this is a commentary on the current generation and their parents.  This generation is filled with kids that behave like adolescents well into their late 20's - some into their 30's.  The question is, where is the problem?  I have my thoughts, but I will save them for another day.
