Re: Is something wrong with today's youth?

Honestly, I don't think there is much change. In my opinion this has always existed and it doesn't just exist in youth. To me, just plain stupidity has always been around. It just seems more prevalent now because it is our present time (the past never seems as severe as the present) and it is more exposed because of the media.

But in the end there will always be examples of stupidity from children, teens, and adults. I will admit that teenagers or children seem to be more stupid sometimes because many have the mindset that nothing really bad can happen to me and in the end things will always be all right. If that mindset is in place, than it makes sense that the individual will be more risky and make more stupid decisions than someone else. The good thing is that sort of mindset will usually be broken in time after said individual becomes more mature and acquires more life experience.
