    Everything i said I experienced in this thread is true.

    I deal with it by using dark sarcastic humor, just like in this thread.

    But no, i am not advocating torturing children.

    On the other hand, the current generation is so sensitive, and so fragile. i don’t think 30 years of helicopter mom’s created people capable of dealing with the brutality of adulthood.

    So they just withdraw into addiction, drug, gaming, alcohol…. what ever. I don’t have a solution, but i don’t think the fragile hyper sensitive political correctness is the solution either.

      I see a generation that was handed a shitty position to start from and they are still here, still pushing, still existing. Still demanding better.

      Punching down on the generations that are younger than yours is a tired trope.
