Answer 2

This is going to make me sound like an old, dried up prune, but here goes...

I blame it on lax parenting. Children are not born knowing of things like being considerate of others. It is up to parents to teach them. Most parents, I've noticed, seem content to sit their children in front of the TV while they go and do their own thing. Yeah, I know parents are busy working, taking care of the house and basically making a living. But if that was going to get in the way of proper child rearing, why did they have children to begin with?

My parents never had a whole lot of money and both of them worked. They still found time to teach my brother and me, to talk to us, and to guide us. It is because we had attentive parents that we grew into the responsible, considerate adults we are today.

I'm not saying that the TV, the computer, radio, video games, etc., hold the sole responsibility for inconsiderate young people. My brother and I had them as well, but the difference was, they were not used as a substitute for Mom and Dad.

Answer 3

Young people only think of themselves and take most things for granted. This is because have been given everything by their parents (parents of the baby boomer generation) who think they are doing the right thing by making their child's life as easy as possible. Unfortunately, by doing this they have taken away their child's ability to think for themselves and appreciate what they have.

The parents of the baby boomer generation have encouraged materialism in their children by giving them more than what they need. They have encouraged selfishness and inconsiderate behavior by having less children and raising them in houses with more room, thus not giving their children important skills like caring for and considering others, and learning how to compromise. These are the conditions under which the young people of today have grown up. Less than ideal for dove loping considerate members of society.

More is less.

Another reason why people in general (not just young people) are so inconsiderate today is because of time. Most people struggle to get everything they have to do done(and for some reason seem to think that they are the only one's in this situation) They are to busy concentrating on what they are doing to think of any body else, or how their actions may affect others. Paradoxically, this just makes life even more difficult.

Answer 4

Children spend more time today in front of TV and video games than they do with other humans. We learn how to deal with crisis and how to be cordial and helpful out of the necessity that comes along with dealing with others. You cannot get that from an electronic device. What you get instead is a) made up cartoons characters that are living out unrealistic circumstances or b) sitcoms and crime dramas that depict the absolute worst case scenarios in life. Bottom line, parents need to spend more time with their kids and kids need to go outside and play like our grandfathers did. Ride bikes, play ball, build forts...

Answer 5

Look at the parents. Kids emulate what they see.
I once had to tell my niece to tell someone thank you. My sister got angry with me and said that I did not need to do that. But I told her apparently I did because it had been two months since her gift was received and she still did not acknowledge it and if she was not going to teach her children manners I would. Today they are better for it.
Young people to today and many of the older generation have lost common politeness.

Answer 6

We live in a very cruel world. Kids dont see their parents or others looking out for one another. The mentality is " Ill take care of myself and my family!" if they even take care of the family. Also, many people are too busy to spend any time with their children. Instead they give them things to occupy their time.

Answer 7

I have to say that I do not see this. I am 36. But, I live in Tx and see THIS (politeness) all the time... Just the other day, leaving the pool, I had a young man say to me "Excuse me, ma,am"....I said "Yes" Hesitating...of course...."He said "I think you dropped your keys". He was right. AND then I started to notice that maybe ppl are wrong.
I have noticed since then that my son (14) has friends that are VERY polite

Answer 10

Immaturity. They don't know life. They don't care.

But it applies to not only youngsters. If a person does not care and inconsiderate it's "incurable". This person usually does not have many friends, and he mostly loves himself.
