Why are people age's around 24 and 25 year old's self entitle , disrespectful , spoiled uncivilized individuals?

[Anonymous]

I feel that people around that age are not acting like adults they still think they are still young teenagers in high school and if it doesn't go their way they bully you and start to threw fits. They don't act polite , I have got to the point to where I feel that I can only be respectful to people age's 30's ,40's , 50's all the way to senior citizens. I have witness it every place I go countless of times. For example the other day at JCPenney this woman she looks to between 23 or 25 age range cut in front of a woman that had been line up first. Now this woman she look around in her 50's she politely ask her a excuse me mam , I was here first. Noting wrong from what I heard this woman say , then the younger woman goes off on her a yells fuck off bitch ! I was disgusted for this supposedly adult. I can not imagine how this world is going to be with this generation they just don't care.

When human beings are born, they are essentially all the same. A newborn today vs a newborn 200 years ago have the same potential.

The difference is how those children are raised, and the environment that they are raised in. If the 25 year olds today seem self-entitled, disrespectful... etc, it is because their parents did not teach them those values.

I would point towards commonly used parental tactics back in the 90's. Parents were told to:
- Encourage their kids.
- Tell them they are special (even when they are not).
- Tell them they can be anything or do anything they want.
- Give them anything they want to prevent tantrums (e. g., babies staring at an ipad at restaurants).
- Celebrate losses just like wins (it's not about winning, its about trying). Like giving "participation medals" for last place.

That type of parenting advice was promoted by psychologists of that generation, and it has resulted in a generation of self-absorbed, impatient, spoiled brats.

Now that those children are adults, they did not learn the lessons they should have. As kids, when they wanted a toy, it was given to them the same day. Now they lack the patience to work and earn things over time. This is why so many millenials flock to "get rich quick" schemes like cryptocurrency, instead of planning a long-term career.

This is why new graduates think they deserve a high salary and a high position in a workplace, even though they have no experience in the workforce, and no experiencing managing people, operations, and finances.

This is why millenials cannot put down their smartphone, because they were given all the attention they wanted as kids. And now, they need the same validation as adults, but from their friends via Instagram... etc.

New parents today have realized the problems with the parenting methods 25 years ago. The people I know with new babies often discuss limiting internet access when their kids grow up. No iPads. Kids need to contribute to the chores at home to earn the things they want, or go shovel walkways in the winter to earn money. No phones at the dinner table. Parents not going to pressure teachers for a better grade when the kid doesn't study or do their homework... etc.

Sorry but you're stuck with the shit bunch of people by being born in the wrong generation.

This is what we call generalizing from a small sample size. Everyone is different, stop stereotyping

[sunshineglow]

You are totally irrationally generalising based on your limited experience.
I am 25 and directly opposite is happening to me in damn stores I am sick and tired of being so polite no one even cares. The older, the more disillusioned and more disrespectful.
This has deff something to do with your city/ wider location.

[Asker]

@Rodrick94always Wow see this is exactly my point! Attacking me on social media is not going to affect me at all. By calling me names just says so much about you in your personality.

[sunshineglow]

And this just proves a lot about you as well.
I didn't call you names nor I do that.
I said you are saying irrational conclusions.

[Asker]

Sunshineglow That reply wasn't meant for you that was rodrick94always , You try reading one more time before you accuse me of such thing.

[sunshineglow]

Aha.
Rodrick is frustrated tho.
We are all apparently.
Just from different reasons.

[Rodrick94always]

sunshineglow follow me !

[Asker]

@Rodrick94always If this is how you people want to act then so be it. If you want to act childish then go ahead I am not the one that is going to deal on having issues in life.

[Rodrick94always]

sunshineglow this asker she couldn't even say shit to your face.

[Asker]

sunshineglow You have not mature at all , I was never said that you are name calling me , you know very well I was talking to Rodrick94always . You can at least learn how to read check my reply messages , I never type your name on. A 6 year old can read clearly better then you.

[markxcds]

You are perfectly right, i don't know why that is the case, probably a number of things, it seems that entire age group like 18-24.

[Asker]

Yeah I have to admit I don't agree with generation.

[Asker]

*my generation

[jakeofalltrades]

because of how they were raised. a lot of them were so coddled growing up that they can't function as adults

[Anonymous]

I think it has a lot to do with your location.
