I'm 27 years old. When I say "older people" I mean anyone 20 and up who looks down on younger people as "immature". Funny: when we were younger, we hated all the yabbering and discipline our parents gave us; but we "grow up" and seem like we can't breathe unless we're dishing it out to younger people. If adults really are as smart as they always claim, as wise and knowledgeable as they state, then why is our world so torn? Why is our government, run by adults, so corrupt? Why is it hard for adults to remember (in all their wisdom) that they themselves hated (when they were young) the very thing they're dishing out to the youth? Why are adults using the same chastising, hurtful, shaming, angry words to coerce younger people to do what ADULTS want, not really what's right for them? If scolding (etc.) never worked, then it never will work. Moral (etc.) collapse of this country started with adults; if anyone needs to change, it is adults since they claim to know better.
