Teenagers Of Old Vs Teenagers Of Now by DBright123(m): 1:09am On Jan 29, 2018 |
Why do you think today's teenagers are worse than teenagers in the generations before? |

Years back I was a teenager, today my daughter is one. I think they face more challenges at school nowadays because the level of education has risen, there are more difficult subjects etc. At the same time you have many useless youths, just watching their mobile and don't know the use of books. It's 50/50 here where I live. My youth was easier because there was no social media. My enemies would speak their mind right in my face, today they spread lies on internet. I'm trying to show my kids that there is life beyond the internet, that books are important!! and that respect is essential. Plus to keep away from drugs!! 2 Likes 3 Shares |

DBright123: Simple. In time past, parenting which is the most important role in the family, was a responsibility accorded its due commitment and sacrifice. This was a time when parents at least, rebuke, spank and discipline their children as the need arises. These old folks just didn't set the standard but lived it themselves. But today, what we have are the liberals, as everyone want to be politically correct. And in our political correctness, we've only ended up breeding a generation of mannerless children, drug addicts, lawlessness, three-score enthusiasts and mouth-actioneers; a generation of evil fantasies continously. No doubt, the coming of the internet, television, telephone etc, are contributors of this decay which has seen responsible parenting watered down completely. But is this an excuse? No! All these things can be responsibly controlled. So the question is: Who is willing to suffer such troubles? |

Splinz: Hmmm, we need a generation of those who by themselves lived the set standards. |
