Agreed, kids of yesteryear were too busy playing hard working hard and overcoming obstacles instead of having to overcome boredom. If you had some stress maybe you bit your fingernails, now stupidity is rewarded with recognition as an addiction. Eating disorders, cutting, piercing, tattoos, I guess I better not go too far down this road.

"kids are more bored than stressed"
Another family and us were having this conversation over Easter dinner. Someone made the comment about simpler times and my 19 year old answered that times are pretty simple now. I guess it's what the pyscholgists/pharmacy companies would like us to believe.
