I have read lots and lots and lots, and i could keep saying 'lots' a lot more for a year for sure, but it just represents something i'm going to point out next
From all people i mostly met online, around 50+ or so, always, and i mean "always", they complain about younger generations, their kids being dumb, not able to do the 'right choices' and 'being snowflakes'
So i have a question for you guys
WHEN, are you going to set the example or tell them, in calm easy to explain, understandable, encompassing, empathic words? How to become strong? How to deal with pain, how to deal with stress, how to deal with abusse, how to deal with life at all?
Or are you all just going to keep rambling about how it was better "back in my days?" Just like your grand parents did?
But wait! Don't get angry, think about this
Your parents and your grand parents thought you were also making mistakes all around, and they thought of you as lesser because you could not figure out things they had already figured out
Have you not figured out yet that you are creating that generation that you complain about, by constantly doing that and saying "this kid can't handle it" instead of "hey kid, this is how it is, handle it no matter what time it takes"
It does seem you have given up on your own kids
I'm so glad i was born on a different country, honestly
I about had enough of the "these kids today" stuff, since it seems impossible to defeat and it's unbeareable narrow and impossible to recover from at this point
--
But think about this, very seriously. Who is going to take care of you once you grow old, if your kids are barely retarded and all you do is to make fun of them, because "they are snow flakes". And you don't realise where this is going?
Who will take care of you once you can't get up of that chair....
*Think fast, and think smart*
I perceive a future world where all the western world will be filled with elder people unable to feed themselves and crying about how the new generations failed them, while also they empowered them by just sitting there watching them go mad all along, without moving a finger instead of doing something about it for real
Time, as it always happens, is of essence. Unless of course, that saying of "whatever, by the time it happens, i won't even be alive anymore, who cares!" and then someone asks "but what about your kids" and the person says "what about them? They figure it out, not my problem"
And history comes to happen, and writes itself
Any thoughts?
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please don't mention my age or i will go berserk
