well now, do you consider "56" as an elder? If so , here goes.
I don't think kids are "evil".....I save that word for pedophiles and murderers..........certainly not for kids.
I am the mother of 2 (17 and 19) and the worst I can say about my kids and their friends is that they are just kids who think they know everything about the world when in fact they really haven't looked around as many corners as I have. They have rose-coloured glasses on just as I did at that age. They are reluctant to acknowledge that their "elders" might just have the answers to a few more things than the kids do.
My husband and I just returned from a 5 day trip (1st one without the kids) and were really disappointed to find out the kids had a party in our absence. (Not really surprised, just very disappointed). Did anything get damaged or stolen?no, but there was the very real possibility of someone being hurt or having property damaged. Yes the police could have been called but at what risk. How many parties have you read about that turned into nightmares because ONE uninvited person shows up with a weapon ? Are my kids evil??? No they just don't see the very real consequences that could happen and I do.
If your elders are costantly teasing or questioning you and not providing unconditional love as a parent then I think they are the ones with a problem, not you.

Quit generalizing. If some elders have been giving you a bad time, that is no reason to label them all as intolerant and judgmental. By generalizing, you have made yourself look as bad as the people you are complaining about.
I would not have gotten through my own teenage years without the aid of elders.

first you have chosen to blame all the elders as a whole,which is wrong.secondly ,do you think all the youngsters are put together are bad or good,or with any problem.if you have posed this question only to the elders,then there are different types of elders.one may think the youngsters as you have told.but there are also other elders who admire the youngsters for their talents, wide knowledge and more qualitative and quantitative studies.may be it is your case that your elders nearby fining something wrong with you,may be that you are also doing some thing wrong.i am sure you will flag my answer as red or put your thumb down.be sure to note ,i have Bean impartial,in my opinion.

Because times arn't as strict as they use to be, work ethic has declined, younger people expect more for less. They are more privileged than previous generations, and therefor have to earn less of what they have/get themselves. There is more corruption out there than there previously was, and ethics declined. Drugs are more apparent, language is more accepted, any 12 year old can get **** from the Internet. Fewer and fewer family are together, with both a natural mother and father. It is not the youths fault, but they are a byproduct of societies turbulent times.
And, because they were once young themselves. Talk to them sometime, about their youth, you will find they got into more than their fair share of trouble. They know the young can be trouble makers, because they wern't always old.

A wrong apprehension about elders. Elders always expect good and harmonious welfare of young as they faced in life and like to prevent such bad experience to the youngsters and they believe that advice would do good and because of the love and 'feeling of mine' they advise the youngsters. Elders I mean as the blood relatives.

it somewhat is why the greater youthful have little ones. It takes a large form of staying power to handle little ones. If somebody has spent a large form of time and robust potential engaged on their backyard, why do not you comprehend which you will stay off of it. It does kill the grass and it somewhat is their assets. some previous human beings get crabby simply by fact they are lonely, others simply by fact they harm, and others simply by fact their perspectives are diverse from yours. My advice is make up a batch of cookies and positioned them on a tremendously paper plate and canopy it with saran wrap. go knock on their door and introduce your self. tell them who you're and approximately the place you reside like a pair of blocks away yet you're a pal of so and so as that lives right here and which you're sorry, you probably did not understand you would be able to desire to be unfavorable their grass yet which you're there to make amends. Then once you conflict by using, no remember if or not they are crabby or not, wave. That previous lady looking out the window will then be your pal and if something happens to you, they are going to be looking out for you and you're growing to be to be made their day. you have the potential to alter the area and turn it right into a favorable. . .it somewhat is a surprising thank you to conflict by using existence. . .

I think this is true because they always turn they noses up when you do the littlest thing. I wonder is it because of the way they were raised or did they do the exact same thing as a child and feel that we can do much better? Are they concerned with our future? I think it is because they are jealous they will be leaving the world soon and we get to take their places and they are not ready to go not just yet. wow that was mean

As I'm a youngster I've the same problem. But I think there're
some kind and understanding elders too. Their anxiety arises
out of "over emphasis on security". They hate taking risks,
being rebellious etc... Some others're jealous of us 'coz they can't return to our age.Whatever be it, cool down 'coz when U're old U'll do the same!!!!!!

I don't think elders find young people to be "evil" they just get upset with our immaturity. How carefree we are, and how we carry on without worry of consiquences. When they were at our age things weren't that laid back, they couldn't be carefree. They realize how much of an advantage we have now and they are envious of that.
