Well it's a rough age these days of realisation.
You gotta remember they have grown up in a processed world of instant gratification and a world of entertainment at their fingerips.

Its the age where their protected little fantasy world is now being torn away by reality.

It must truly hurt.
They arent prepeared for it like we were.

This generation coming through is already addicted to media and dependent on dopamine self dosing to solve all ones emotional lows.

They are being faced with raw life with no back up system or do-overs.🤷‍♀️

It must be an awful shock to them.

@OogieBoogie I see where you're coming from too.....I agree with some of it.....but, the influx of all these with the new badges saying this over and over.....it's redundant.

@OogieBoogie I think they will suffer in later life more then we have
@SW-User it does get frustrating.

I feel sorry that they think they are entitled to a prefect world.
No one ever got perfect.

They have no resilience. Everything is a drama.
Not enough attention and they feel neglected.....too much and they feel harassed.
Negative attention is deemed bullying, and positive attention is stalking.

How they expect the world to fit into their limited accepted parameters....is scary.

So many are gonna break...or be overly medicated to survive.
@Justenjoyit i think so too.
Its not just that they are soft....the world is also harder.

People will stop having kids. Itll be a struggle to care just for oneself 😞

@OogieBoogie I see your point....I appreciate your point of view on this. I've tried to help some of these new ones on that age range, and I'm either ignored or blocked. So, I just move along.....
@SW-User same.
And i came to tjr realisation they want 'exterior' solutions, or validation.
Which, ironically is what every generation seems to want

Fuck...im 50, and i still hate being told what to do 😂

@OogieBoogie Well hell, I'm 48 and I can't stand for my parents to continue giving me advice or such! 🤭🤣
