If these over-privileged, mal-educated, sub-intelligent brats get what they're demanding, life's going to be far more stressful than they could ever imagine.

How would millennials even know? How did folks feel getting drafted and killed in large numbers in the 40s, the 50s, the 60s, or even the 70s. Millennials will never know. So shut up, he explained.

Too many are looking for the easy way out of every challenge.

There's no easy way out.

That builds stress.

What would you expect from a bunch of people who think recorded history began in the Clinton Administration?

Like living through the Black Plague, American Civil War, Great Depression and WW II weren’t stressful.

Rational thinking removes lots of stress. They ought to try it sometime.

Emotional restraint training might help, too. It could be packaged as “ Zen for Snowflakes” to make it more hip and woke.

Wow. Had to be a forced list.

No mention of responsibilities at work. Or taking care of families. Or retirement, planning for the future, college planning for their kids, or really, *any* adult responsibilities at all.

"Arguing with partner" would be a concern for me, because it never happens... so I'd wonder what was wrong and do everything I could to fix it. Otherwise? The rest are trivial inconveniences at worst.

"Doing Dishes"? "What to wear"? WBill Jr is going to rule the world, if these are major stressors for his generation.

Take heart that global warming and the Trump presidency aren’t there.

I'm not a millennial but for a period, I was getting stressed out due to the "always on" technology surrounding me.

I've done the following:

My phone is now always in "do not disturb" mode (I have a few key contacts that can bypass it). So I don't get a ping every time a message comes in. I check messages at my own convenience, usually once an hour during business hours and once every few hours outside of business hours. So far, the earth has not stopped rotating and I'm actually more productive at work as I'm not stopping what I'm doing and reacting to every single email and text that comes in.

Deleted all social media accounts except Twitter and Linkedin. The rest, who needs them? Just noise and distraction, especially Facebook.

I cut my cable. That means no network news whatsoever. Not even Fox News. I get all the news I need on Free Republic, Twitter feeds and a few other select sites like TownHall and Reddit. So no more gratuitous Trump-bashing, no more shouting and no more constant negativity.

Finally, I have much more time for reading. Been reading 2-3 books a WEEK for the past year or so.

The lack of old fixed rules and the emergence of new arbitrary rules that changes every time someone gets "offended" must be stressful indeed.
Boo and hoo.

On the bright side, they’ll only have to put up with it for 12 more years.

For example, although losing one’s wallet or credit card ranked as the top source of stress for respondents, 1 in 5 say they’d be even more apoplectic if their smartphone screen broke. For more than 2 in 5 millennials (41%), a damaged phone screen is worse than seeing their “check engine” light flash on in the car.

I lack the words for an adequate expression of contempt. I hope this is Fake News and a buggered up, agenda driven survey lacking utterly in valid data.

Liberal Snowflakes can’t face any challenges without withdrawing and going catatonic or full blown bitching.

The Trump Curse is making these worthless individuals even crazier from the ordinary challenges of life each day.
