This generation.

I found out about microaggressions last week, and I couldn't believe it.

We really are raising a generation of pussies.

How did it get to this point, and how do we fix it?

Get children outdoors and dirty and parents to be less cleaning obsessed.

Cleaning you think it is?!?!?! Cleaning?!??!

Haha how about INFINITE SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT the Snowflakes have!

[Gandalf]

Baby boomers fucked up the world and ignored what they were doing and stole the future from their children. Now the kids are all 'snowflakes'. Take away the real entitlement and rip it down and then see who the snowflakes are. Hippie come yuppie sellout the children cunts.

Wrong. It's the millenials and centennials that haven't got a clue.
After Generation X it all went to hell in a hen basket.

Baby Boomers started it all with the acceptance of neo-liberalism and the shipping of jobs to China and the erosion of their own idealism. Their grandchildren have inherited an appalling system. 2008 was the greatest crash since the great depression, yet more jobs were shipped to China, student debt continued to rise, service sector jobs became the norm and kids couldn't afford to leave home until the age of 35. Meanwhile government debt has risen to something like 20 trillion and then all the unfunded liabilities make it something that could extend to the nearest galaxy meaning the grandkids of todays kids are further enslaved. Oh, and the super rich have doubled their wealth while the poor have continued to get poorer. And people wonder why kids today want a system with a bit of socialism and humanity attached to it? No, the people born post WW2 got sloppy and they stopped paying attention and now the shit is hitting the fan. All societies become decadent and fail and now it is America's turn and the kids are just trying to stay afloat on a sinking ship. Best to let it sink because the kids can swim to shore and build a new one. The baby boomers are done and good riddance.

@Master OK I got it. yes I agree. Pampered beyond belief.

Each day I become a little more like that pissed off old man yelling at kids from his yard who we laughed at when kids. I have no pity for empty headed twits who complain that they are "overwhelmed" at least twice a day. Only because we've been there, done that and own the T shirt.

As a society we need to look back to how our grandparents and great grandparents were raised dust it off a bit, shine it up, and proceed from there.

Now that said I don't mean bringing back ritualized beatings, horrid safety conditions at work, or anything like that....but we need to allow kids to be kids, but also instill some discipline and some fucking intestinal fortitude....kids have to be more resilient.
