We're too arrogant and full of ourselves but the reality is we think we're more than we are while producing NOTHING.

Mrchocolate1818, HIT it spot on. There will be hate cause no one want's to hear the truth.

[chrisbigman]

I think it's a mix of things, from lack of good parenting to the influx of social media and technology to just life in general. Granted, each generation has it's troubles.

[hans1416]

Because our parents were idiots who thought they could destroy every institution and everything that gave us meaning and a source of moral guidance, and somehow escape the negative consequences.

[HereIbe]

They don't. They're just egotistical and think they suffer worse than anyone else--just like EVERY OTHER generation did at that age.

Kids think they invented the world yesterday.

[Under_Maps_OF_twigs]

Because they decided not to put Jesus 1st in their life and many no longer have the joy of their salvation.

[Muhammad1999]

Because of electronics and less time outside , back in the days people used to be more friendly and spending most of the day out

[Dchrls78104]

A child in this generation is said to be undergoing more stress than adults of previous generations when they were kids.

[Introvert94]

A lot of people don't focus on their internal and building it up to be relentless/strong enough, too busy worrying about the external. I don't know.

[pipeline78]

We live in a world where everyone wants it handed to them!! Dr prescribe pills for Shit just a world of weak people. We’ve never been better and that’s the problem

[AdmiralBaileysphone]

Well. Nice paper. I guess I'll go fuck myself then...

[Juxtapose]

Just be glad you weren't born in some third world shithole or under the Islamic State.

[Notabadguy]

Cuz the internet is a place where you meet fucked up epople and fill your mind with shitty knowledge

[DamnSam]

World is on fire and nobody reacts, would be just more surrealistic if all would just be fine...

[Lance1965]

The internet, social media and texting is a big part of it.

[BeHappy1985]

Because we live in an era of fucking snowflakes bitching about every little thing.

The knowledge that you're living in the last generation before the 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ certainly can't be helpful... especially if you haven't been Born Again...
