Of course all you have to do is use your common sense. Women have destroyed everything from family, the children, the pay wage, prosperity, debt, morality, and all of American society. This is what has happened over and over again whenever women are given satanic unnatural unbiological whore "liberation." We are at the end of our civilization. Satan is fullfilling his covenant with them Revelation 17.
This sort of thinking comes from seeing it day in and day out. Trust me, I'm doing my best to steer as many of them in the right direction as I can. But they have to want to go and keep at it.
I do remember them. And I remember not being like this. There's thinking you know things and then there's being crazy disrespectful. I still accepted help when I was a teenager.
@Somethingwittty - You got it son. YOU are the generation of 'participation trophies' and awards, safe spaces, unrealistic expectations - you were told your whole life how much you DESERVE to be happy and successful, and if you whined or fussed you got something. No, a whole generation of pussies. Most raised without a dad, so neither gender really understands what men are or what they're for. All the while the feminist movement took over and convinced you men are toxic, they're all rapists, you live in rape culture, and that families don't need dads. Even hollyweird got into the shtick. No, western culture is failing. They're letting the inmates run the asylum. :)
Deserving and earning are two different things. Personally I never got spoiled growing up. I worked for what i got as a kid. It's called earning what you want. Things dont get handed out for free.
Also most of the people my age that are completely screwed up are understanding that we now live in the society we will have to change for the better. Outrage culture is a bad thing. Its toxic and a horrible deal all the way around. Lastly many people like me were told that going to college was the way to succeed in life when nowadays it really isn't. The only thing my degree gives me credibility. I didn't learn anything i couldnt have learned on my own without the thousands of dollars of debt I'm paying off.
@Somethingwittty - I know, my kids are 25, 29, 33. All three are highly successful, own their own homes, are well adjusted - no SJW here, they're hetero, no tats, rather conservative.
The youngest got himself into college - all by himself, I didn't help or pay, got a masters in four years and got recruited by a tech-giant in silly-cone-valley making bank. He wouldn't have amounted to a hill of beans had he not gone to college.
So some of what you say is true and good, some is just subjectivity.
But you're right, nobody deserves anything, entitled to nothing - you get what you get for the effort and work you put in, just like everybody else. And the little fucktards that don't like hearing this have now invented the 'ok boomer' come-back. Typically immature and silly, right along with their attitude and persona. Ya just can't fix stupid. Hopefully they'll grow up one day - the hippie-boomers surely did. LOL
Then you did a fantastic job as a parent and you should be proud to have raise such fine individuals. You are a perfect example of what a good baby boomer should be. I've met plenty of good and bad ones. And the "ok boomer" insult can be applied to any age range. I myself have used it and have had it used on me. It is an insult in regards to older style beliefs. Its mostly applied to close minded individuals or people who are to old-school by today's standards. Use it yourself if you want.
@Somethingwittty - I had to be the hard-ass. Mom wanted to be their buddy. The youngest is hers, then two from my previous marriage - the older ones. We don't hear from them much.
Well man its because they are living the life you taught them how to live and you should still be proud. Dont worry about which child is yours and which isn't. Sounds like you helped raise them all to an extent. Hold your head up my friend. You did well.
Would actually care to not be your usually snarky self and see that I've explained to plenty of people in these comments? Prime example of what I mean.
I’m not usually snarky, actually. You don’t know anything about me or how I usually act. You asked a vague question and you gave no details whatsoever in your original post. You only offered the explanation that you’re a kindergarten teacher and the 5-year-olds you teach are bratty, which, of course they are, they’re 5, when you were asked multiple times to explain what you’re asking about by other confused users. By the way, you can’t generalize every person aged 12 to 18’s behavior based on the group of 5 year olds you care for. Also, it’s funny how you were polite to those that asked for elaboration who were over the age of 20, but when I ask, suddenly it’s “snarky” and I’m a “prime example” of the doom you predict for my generation. Someone’s a little biased.
I was polite to those who weren't snarky. And yes, actually I do. Every opinion I've seen of yours you're being ignorant. So before I even seen what you had to say, I knew what it was going to be like. And I teach kindergarten NOW. My school is K-8 and I have experience with kids of all ages. The question isn't vague. Those that wanted to get it, got it. Those that came here ready to be offended, did not.
“Every opinion I’ve seen of yours you’re being ignorant” Okay. How am I being ignorant now? What other opinions have I posted in which I’ve come across as ignorant in your opinion? Explain.
“So before I even seen what you had to say, I knew what it was going to be like.” That is the literal definition of bias. You misinterpreted my pushing for further explanation as “snarky,” because before you even read my opinion, you had a negative, defensive mindset due to your own personal bias against me.
“My school is K-8 and I have experience with kids of all ages.” I’m sorry, was I supposed to just instinctively know this information about you? You failed to mention this in any of your replies to anyone else, you only said that you were a kindergarten teacher and that you were disappointed to see such disobedience and disrespect in children so young. I have no idea why you think it’s fair to expect everyone to know this information about you when you fail to provide it for them.
“This question isn’t vague. Those that wanted to get it, got it.” No, they didn’t, because there was nothing to “get” out of this question. You ominously described kids today as a “lost cause” who “don’t want to be saved.” You didn’t explain what you meant by that. You didn’t give any examples to help your audience understand what behaviors make these children a lost cause. Out of the people that agreed with you, most of them who gave an in-depth opinion simply recognized that you were speaking badly of the new generation, and shared their own thoughts on why they also don’t like the new generation. But, at least they gave their own explanations for why they feel the way they do. You did not.
You talk down to people. Especially on opinions that might differ from others. The initial question is do you think that this generation is lost. I don't feel that the question is vague. I also don't have a problem elaborating for people who don't get what I mean. But if you come at me in a rude and ignorant way, I'm going to respond as such. Now I may not have included my background info which in hindsight, I probably should have. And you say you weren't trying to be snarky but have made sure to comment and agree with most of the other snarky comments.
I don’t think that’s entirely inaccurate to say. I certainly don’t talk down to people all the time, it depends on the question. Most of the time I try and be positive, encouraging, and genuinely helpful, but if the asker of a particular question is just an idiot, I’m not going to act like they aren’t. Not everyone can vibe with that, and that’s okay, they don’t have to. I felt that your question was indeed vague, and I don’t feel that my initial request for more information was rude or ignorant. But those are both things we’ll have to agree to disagree about because obviously we perceive them in different ways.
Honestly? I think the main problem with kids nowadays is the world is finally opening up and accepting that we are all equal and deserve the same rights. They are being taught love and acceptance by society while their parents and grandparents try to fill their minds with hate.
Nonsense. There are boys age 8 or 9 who run with their arms at their side like penguins. Soft bodies, soft minds, no discipline, no respect. I'm 43, and served 3 tours in Afghanistan. What can you really say at 20 years old?
Thank you for your service. That being said, why does that matter? Because they aren't manly enough? Because everyone doesn't fit your idea of what a boy should be? Your generation calls us the entitled ones; yet all we want is the freedom to be ourselves without having to live in fear. Meanwhile you and people like want to force everybody to live by your standards, you expectations, what you decide should be the norm. Tell me, who's more entitled there? As for what I can say at 20 years old? Well I've never been in a battlefield. But I survived my childhood with an alcoholic, drug dealing, murderous, abusive child molester for a father. I've nearly been killed twice, attempted suicide once, raised two children because my mother had to work to keep the bills paid. And even after all of that I still pulled my shit together, figured out my life, found a job and a place to call home that I love. Now I've paid off my truck, I'm getting my first home in march, and I'm doing it all without help, not to mention that I'm doing it in the economy that your generation ruined. So no. I've never shot a gun at foreigners; never been overseas. But if that's all you have that you're proud of then move along pal.
And another thing. No discipline? No respect? There's that entitlement again. What makes you think respect is automatically deserved? In this world. In the world that belongs to my generation now. You earn respect. If that's an issue. I suggest you find a nice retirement community and live out your days with like minded individuals.
That isn't our fault! Society has made it hard for us to live in an inhumane world. What do you expect? It was easier for the rest but only because it wasn't as complicated to get your shit together.
Yes I'm not going at you. I'm only explaining what I hope others will understand. Though I gotta admit that not all of them are corrupted by society. A portion just do their thing and make the rest who actually give a f*ck look bad.
"There's no saving them because they don't want to be saved." I can't say I totally agree with that regarding the entire generation. Nonetheless, I have noticed the application of that attitude in many of them.
Honestly I think gen z is doing better than us millennials. Most of my generation cry and moan of entitlement while I see kids like my brother in law who is 16 fucking 16 getting shit done left and right.
He asks me for business and investing advice and just bought his own car and it's saving for college he wants to become a lawyer and have his own law firm
While people my age are crying because the "boomers" destroyed our sociaty. Help me Bernie Sanders woe is me
Your brother-in-law is not representative of the entire Generation Z, as judging from your message he was born into privileges; therefore your opinion of Generation Z is skewed. Anyone who is born without a disability, to intelligent and successful parents, is raised in a loving and caring home, without domestic violence, and child-abuse will obviously go onto make great strides in their lives; it is virtually impossible for them to fail in life, therefore any successes such off-spring go on to make Are largely down to the privileges they were born into, and very little to do with effort. The above statement isn’t just my opinion, it is widely accepted by the global scientific community. A analogy I like to give is the difference between planting a seed in soil contaminated by radiation, and planting a seed in fertile ground.
@Lucky1974 he was not my wife's family is actually very poor her mom makes 11 dollars an hour and her husband doesn't.
I wasn't born into privilege either. I'm a millennial and I literally was born into poverty and I'm now almost a millionaire. Excuses won't get you anywhere bro.
Take it from me it can be done.
Regarding climate change instead of waiting for politician to do it just do what you can yourself. For example I plant a three for every sale in my business
@distressedanonymus I’m come from an impoverished family as well bro I’m trying to make it out. Your right no excuses, you can make if if you have that drive.
Like he said, your brother in law is definitely not the representative for all kids his age. And most of the people I know that are our age work hard as hell.
Yes. Our lives are too easy, with no great generational problems to solve or (attainable) horizons to explore. And no meaningful purpose beyond "me, me, me".
Granted, millennials are the end result of the trends that boomers started.
When I was a kid I remember other kids being huge assholes. I was treated worse as a kid than I have ever been in my life up to now. They have no respect or sense of authority. I'm sure I was an asshole kid too but I'm biased because it was me.
Sure. I mostly feel like that because of their attitudes. You can't tell them anything because they know everything. They aren't receptive to learning much from others and accepting help. Being an educator it's hard to teach them.
I am sure elders once said the same about my generation. Life finds a way to perpetuate itself. They will do what is best for them as they mature ideally.
They're the result of bad parenting, poor education and a society that would rather criticize them than help them. Bearing all that in mind I think they're doing okay.
Somewhat true. You can't help those that don't want or care to be helped. And I see every single day just how much a lot of these children don't want ir think they need to be helped.

Yes... this generation is shitty and too sensitive.
The disrespect with some of them is just...
Of course all you have to do is use your common sense. Women have destroyed everything from family, the children, the pay wage, prosperity, debt, morality, and all of American society. This is what has happened over and over again whenever women are given satanic unnatural unbiological whore "liberation." We are at the end of our civilization.

Cause Hitler, Stalin, Kim dynasty and Zedong were all women
In sure they were saying that about our generation too. And it'll be said about the next and the next. This sort of thinking isn't helpful.
This sort of thinking comes from seeing it day in and day out. Trust me, I'm doing my best to steer as many of them in the right direction as I can. But they have to want to go and keep at it.
Okay boomer
Neither of you are boomers.
Thank you that was the joke.
They're children... they just THINK they know. You don't remember YOUR teen years?
I do remember them. And I remember not being like this. There's thinking you know things and then there's being crazy disrespectful. I still accepted help when I was a teenager.
They have shit-parents. Their parents are MY generation's children. And we did a SHIT job. LOL
Lmao I won't argue with you. There could definitely be some better parenting!
You are the first person from your generation I've heard accept responsibility for my generations parents
Thank you for saying what you said.

There can be no justification for abandoning hope for a single child, let alone a generation.
They have to want it
Why would you feel like that? Would you care to actually explain your thought process instead of speaking all vague?
Would actually care to not be your usually snarky self and see that I've explained to plenty of people in these comments? Prime example of what I mean.
I’m not usually snarky, actually. You don’t know anything about me or how I usually act. You asked a vague question and you gave no details whatsoever in your original post.

As well as parents that generation corrupted us. So there's that as well
True. Society has definitely not been much help. And I'm not really blaming you guys. I guess I'm more frustrated than anything.
Yes I'm not going at you. I'm only explaining what I hope others will understand. Though I gotta admit that not all of them are corrupted by society. A portion just do their thing and make the rest who actually give a f*ck look bad.

Same. Kids were pretty bad back then but it's on a whole other level now. You could scare a kid back then. These kids don't fear anything now.
Damn people are going in on you for this question.. 🤔
They don't want to see what I'm asking. They wanna keep acting like they don't get it lol. Which is completely fine. Because I can act stupid too.
Some of em get it. don't ever lose full hope in humanity. Or we lose... more than we already have.
Oh absolutely. There are diamonds and gems in the rough and I will always keep pushing to expose them.
You just forgot all the stupid shit you used to do in this age.
I didn't forget anything. These kids are 10x worse than what I was.
Every generation feels that way for younger generations. They'll get by.
I was coming to say this same thing lol. It's like the music thing. As we get older, music gets "worse" but it's not. It's just different.
@DorkVader no, modern music is objectively worse.
^^^^ My point
@Codywow Mostly copycats of what came before.
But without any sincerity.
@DorkVader exactly.
Nah, their a whole different breed. But thanks for your opinion.
You don't think every older generation has hated every newer generation's music and sense of style for ages? It's historical fact
@DorkVader yes, and every older generation likes to think of themselves as of the last sane ones. Good old days and all.
Sorry this literally has zero to do with the topic but you have the Best username I've seen on any site in quite some time. Kudos!
( @EleanorRigby )
@DockEllisDee thank you 😁
Could you elaborate on why you think teenagers 12-18 are a lost cause?
Sure. I mostly feel like that because of their attitudes. You can't tell them anything because they know everything. They aren't receptive to learning much from others and accepting help. Being an educator it's hard to teach them.
I am sure elders once said the same about my generation. Life finds a way to perpetuate itself. They will do what is best for them as they mature ideally.

Somewhat true. You can't help those that don't want or care to be helped. And I see every single day just how much a lot of these children don't want ir think they need to be helped.
Teenagers are always and will always be lost. Once they hit adulthood they will be fine
they are still kids and as such dont need to feel responsible
