A Lost Generation?

Give them books to read, they won't read. They would rather read pool results or football match results in the dailies. Invite them to seminars they won't attend, they would rather stay at home to watch Telemundo or attend pool party. Post educative statuses longer than 100 words, they won't read it. They will rather stare at Linda Ikeji blog from morning till night reading gossips. Give them free ticket to listen to Literary Giants, they will rather go and buy tickets to watch Whizkid.

Ask them to pray and worship God they prefer to be sleeping.

These same people are the one chanting for change. Asking for change when they are unwilling to change. They are full of noise yet empty of constructive ideas. They know nothing about world history, they are unaware of breakthroughs in science, yet they know the latest mobile phone in town. A lost generation, always seeking quick fixes, quick to find faults, yet void of solutions, morally bankrupt, intellectually deficient, short of sight and lacking vision! Such is our youths. To whom do we handover? This lost generation?

Can they be saved? Can they be redeemed? Who will save them?

Start from your home now to make sure your children are not part of the lost Generation!


May God help us all.

I may be wrong but I think they are the result of adult entertainment (I don't mean porn). They are exposed to mature content such as music videos and too much home videos. Infact they were raised by TV. Once parents make their kids study and read fun novels (for kids and teenagers) they will be better than average citizens interested in other things than fashion and celebrities. Let parents be more responsible to their children

The theory of a lost generation has always been a façade , even the eighties and nineties were considered lost too, point is , posterity will judge relative to the current standings.
