My Millenial nephews-in-law? One is an engineer who works part-time as a farmer, and the other teaches US history to 8th graders and works as a welder on weekends. They’re rather busy young fellows.
So because your Millenial offspring are successful, the whole generation is thus redeemed. Uh-huh.
I have children who are arguably “early Millenials” who are successful too, that doesn’t make their generation worthy.
Of course, nobody wants to talk about him though. There's probably more like him than the lazy, delicate flowers protesting on campus...but the flowers get all the attention.
I've got 15 nieces and nephews that are millenials and 3 grandkids. They're all normal, well adjusted kids. Not one of them has ever asked for a 'safe space' or wished they weren't white...
“Theyâre rather busy young fellows.”
I’ve met far more awesome kids than slackers. The great guys are just quietly going about life. That’s why we never see them. They’re the excruciatingly polite young man who chases you down to return your wallet and the great kid who stops to help you change a tire in the rain. They’re out there and they are every bit as good as the best.
There are exceptions. Sounds like their upbrining saved them. I know many good ones.
My goodness, they are as busy as a couple of termites in a lumberyard. That is meant as a supreme compliment. Too many millenials are simply lazy, waiting for taxpayer-funded handouts rather than doing for themselves.
