I really do feel sorry for this generation.

It is a bizarre combination of helicopter-parent led “I’m special” arrogance and yet not being trained for useful careers that has landed them in forceps not of their making.


I have a friend whose daughter graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in International Business at Grove City College this year ( She took up Chinese as a second language for 3 years ). Guess where she found a job ? A Chinese trading company in Hang Zhou. Of course she isn't making US dollars and her salary won't be as good as if she were working in the USA. But hey, she had been looking for 6 months. It beats being unemployed.

In today’s world, languages — especially Far and Middle East — are a good skill to have.
