So @Spicoli ....you don't think there's a problem with the children of today???
A 40-year study finds Generation Z is avoiding sex, alcohol and driving like never before

Really?
REALLY???
"Overwhelmingly, today's teens were found to be less likely to drive, work for pay, go on dates, have sex, or go out without their parents."

Ha! you realise you are saying this as the most prolific and persistently outraged poster on a forum ? ;D
Re: 1917 young people fought WWI.....2017 young people traumatized by speeches!
I suspect every generation (so far) is 'softer' than those before it as quality of life and standard of living goes up ...... in the West, anyway.
Im not sure anybody alive would have coped with being a hunter-gatherer, a medieval peasant or a Victorian worker.
However, we are still fighting wars, we still have ethnic cleansing and murders and rape, we are still breaking sports records and 'young people' are doing that quite well. We still have charities, people who help others and compassion and 'young people' are doing that quite well too.
Every generation despairs about the one after it. Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose. :cool:
Anyway, don't forget that it wasn't the Millenials who invented smartphones, the internet, mortgages and debt, religion, wage slavery, colonialism, racism and the like.

Lyle if you notice the only people who are protesting when we say these things are the posters here who have their own children. That is so gay the merely protest an issue simply because you yourself have a personal stake in it. These are self blind individuals who did not even realize that they are subconsciously just pushing their own agenda and cannot make out of the box objective decisions on issues

Well it is true that I have a daughter but I still think children are ridiculous nowadays and everything Lyle says it's true they cannot have face-to-face conversations they cannot engage in any kind of problem solving strategies and they think everything is reduced to a smart screen

What a piss poor excuse for an argument. How you can call complete strangers to you "little pieces of shit" and then expect to be taken seriously is beyond me. If you think raising children is having an agenda you need to get the dictionary out. I am sure Lyle's kids will be amazing and not "Mindless zombies devoid of any soul, unable to live without the internet and have real life visceral experiences.." but then why can he not extend that hospitality and presume other people might be able to raise kids well ?
Here you are working ridiculously long hours and then mocking other posters who seem to have a better work life balance and to be free of the kind of bitterness that is seeping out of you and Lyles pores onto the forum all day long every day,simply because they chose to raise children. it's you pair that come across as Idiots

brock, different parents have different rules and expectations for their kids and that's cool, that is fine, to each their own in that regard. I'm certain that the feeling "Oh my God, just give them the fucking iPad/iPhone to shut them the fuck up and leave me with my solitude for one fucking second!" is one way this trend has started and I understand that...I hope that I will do better as a parent, but I know I won't be perfect.
Master, I know it's all just words from ME until the wife and I start expanding the family but I will legit try to have my children as unplugged as possible. If my kids aren't getting into trouble (silly trouble, mischievous trouble, not like BAD trouble) then not only will I be disappointed I'll be very worried....life experiences man, those things you can look back on and enjoy and the idea that new memories like those can be made that's the joy of life man.
