Kids no longer drinking, fighting, stealing as much

These darn young whippersnappers. Can't do anything right. Such a lazy youth we have today. We had real rebellion back in my day, not like today's entitled youngsters.
My generations stole enough of the Satanic Panic momentum to make up for this generation's lack of proper young people behavior. We had Marilyn Manson telling kids to worship the devil, MTG teaching us how to summon demons, eggs for brains, and Judas Priest telling us to go kill ourselves.
Sorry Millennial and iGen, we Gen-Xers had to take all that deviant behavior for ourselves, sucking it out of many future generations to come! :p

There's a huge amount of pressure to conform to strict PC norms and body-fascism amongst young people I know. They are ultra-careful of what they say and do (twitter never forgets). They can't afford to get drunk and mouth off like genXs did. Someone will be getting it on film and posting it up.

Lots of mental health issues with the girls too - self-harm and other stuff, though you'd hardly guess it. They don't seem a genuinely happy or a free bunch to me. There's a quiet sadness about a few of the young men I know.

Give them better healthcare and wages so they can afford to participate in a weight loss program.

Why do people in this country hate other people so much?

Give? Not much left of 'my' income I can give.

IDK, The no deodorant wearing unshorn sisters of the apocalypse thing doesn't have much appeal to me.:eek::D

Me neither - all that passed me by. All I got from a hippie was a stranded leather hair-band accidentally dropped into my lap at the 1970 Bath music festival. :D

They say not to feed the alligators in Everglades park.

Such welfare is bad for everyone involved.

What are you saying? If people feed the alligators ,they may forget how to hunt for their own food and eventually bite (off) the hand that feeds them? Surely you jest.:rolleyes:

No, they wont forget how to fend for themselves, though a lot of humans get to where they will not,, even if they could.

The alligator will "bite the hand that feeds them" which is why anyone feeding alligators gets a big fine, and the animals is
killed.

'Gators apparently have a very limited vocabulary, such that
"recognition" and "ingestion" are the same word. :D

If they recognize people as a source of food they get
(more) dangerous.

I am not against welfare / societal safety net.

But good intentions, social engineering, can have very
negative unintended consequences.

Kinda like feeding gators, looks harmless. Later is
when it, ah, bites you.
