What’s interesting is that back in the ‘Boomer days’ you keep grousing about, a 30yo wasn’t considered a youngster, but a full adult.
Intergenerational resentments used to be individual and particular to whatever family member was being resented for whatever reason. Those specific resentments now seem to be repressed, with the emotion coming out against said parents’ whole generational cohort, perhaps as a result.
Last I checked the article was calling the ‘youngsters’ worthless and lazy.
Only when someone states the facts - that boomers have changed things drastically, do people get their dander up. Odd that.
Yeah, it’s a fact that boomers have passed laws restricting when kids can get their license, and restricting when they can drive and where. And then they wonder why the kids don’t want to drive anymore...
I’m 65 and no one my age that I knew played GAMES and did childish things.....they went to work, got married, had children, and yes they ALL got DL’s at 16.
