Why is Gen Z having such a hard time?

They are suffering due to lack of good parenting and liberal controlled poor education. My wife and I have 6 kids, all worked through high school (four even had their own business during that time), managed their money well, bought their own cars, moved out of the house at 18, paid for their own college or trade schooling, 4 of the 5 boys are either still in the national guard or have retired from it, 4 of them own their own construction business and make over $1 million each per year. We were not wealthy when they were young and we gave all of them work to do starting at an early age, never had to spank them and we allowed them a lot of freedom but required them to use common sense. They did not get cell phones or video games.
