I'm not saying curse the age group as a whole, by any means, I'm just saying that the majority are self entitled brats who moan until they get their way, or just banter on mic like it's a twitter feed.
OP is one of those such brats.
The only way the mature kids are going to change that perspective is by encouraging their peer group, not by expecting me to put up with it. They need to teach their friends to be more like them, and then you'll see more of the older crowd accept them.
Asking them to put up with it is an act of futility.

Unfortunately trying to get them to emulate the more mature kids may also be an act of futility. It'd be like getting my dad to be more like me financially. He "knows better" in his mind. It seems we may have to just hope that when they do mature... It's not into an annoying adult. Lol. On that note though I have to go stop my 3 yr old from trying to eat her weight in fruit snacks.
