Not all are like this.

All my kids are Gen Z. My oldest received several merit bonuses, two promotions, and 3 raises in the last year. He was able to replace two people in his office and still has time to check his phone.

My middle one just completed their Associate’s in Science while working 30 hours a week and earning the ASL certification.

My youngest has been taking care of me, driving me around, runs errands, does dishes, laundry, helps me clean and does the lawn. We are waiting until we move so I can retire before he starts school.

Good comment. And there have been reports of companies increasingly hiring kids right out of high school, giving them significant on-the-job training, and sending them to college at night when necessary.

While I won’t go not detail, so far all my Gen Z kids are doing great. Hard workers and know the world doesn’t owe them anything. It’s because WE RAISED them. I’ve got a Gen Alpha kid also being raised, and he’s think he will be just fine.
We don’t expect anyone to raise our kids for us.
