So yeah. Kids are kinda messed up. IMHO, FWIW.

No more/less than any other generation

Sure they are. Check the mental health/suicide stats.

I mean you just said that with absolutely no thought to it whatsoever.

The MH community again Sue?

These folks are on a mission to create , not erradicate pandemic

A poor metric...

What was considered 'normal' in the past is now some undiscovered prognosis for them to turn yoots into lab rats

How ADHD Was Sold

Oh for pity's sake, I'm not even talking about ADHD. That barely even scratches the surface these days.

I straightened my 36 year old daughter out who thought that a loan is a gift. She drove 50 miles round trip to pay me back $10 and gave me five dollars for interest. I think she is generation X.

With the college testing boards redesigning their entrance exams, and Universities throwing out the requirement entirely that you need to take it to enter?

This is a foolish OP.

Newer generations have tunnel vision in what they are aware of, their knowledge is very selective, they have been conditioned and dumbed down.

That claim is based on nothing but your own personal prejudice.
