Older people have been bitching about the "younger generation" for years and years and years. As I'm sure your elders did about yourselves when you were our age. It's not the end of the world people.

I like how we're so often criticized about the bad things my generation does, yet the good things are never mentioned. Fine with me though, it's the way of the world.

I think that each generation is more permissive than the generation before it. This results in each generation becoming less and less in step with traditional Judeo-Christian beliefs and accepted standards of conduct. Therefore, each generation sees the younger generation as moving further and further from accepted norms of behavior.

Nonetheless, whether one thinks it is good or not, the fact is clear that each new generation is less acceptable of the past.

As for all the "good" done by the younger generation that is overlooked by the older generation, give us a list. Often, what the younger generation sees as "good" is seen by older individuals as an affront to the traditional beliefs and accepted rules of life. Thus, "good" is usually in the eyes of the beholder.
