So about the new generations and current ones...

Hello everyone! It's been a while since I've posted anything and I wanted to touch down on the new generations topic. What do you guys think about them? How do you see yourself in the next few years as you have kids(or already have them) and look at some of the things they're doing and find out it's way different than what you grew up with? Here's my views: So I remember growing up(im not old btw im just reflecting on younger years) back when phones were still pretty much prehistoric and if you had wi fi in them it was beyond magic but shitty as hell to use and the games on them were....pretty much shite. I still remember when I wen to school, I was probably 13 when phones became a trend to have and it wasn’t until I was probably 14 or 15 when they were everywhere and Smartphones and Ipods and Iphones were common. Then Ipads and now I look back at it and go to see my little sibling's schools and I see 7 year olds with Iphones and im just standing there like "damn, talk about the technological age" and all, the classrooms are filled with kids with their faces stuck to the screen and that also goes to current generations. But one thing baffles me about them....the phone and the wifi in it... So I see kids always asking questions about certain stuff and you know the basics, you answer them right? Well that may have been the only way back then but nowadays with these new stuff shouldn't the new generations know they have the world's information at the tip of their hands? I mean seriously most people never use their phones but to socialise and shop and completely miss the actual benefit of it, "knowledge" im not saying everyone needs it but if you ever have a question you can always look it up on the internet lol :p To end this my views for the new and current generations about the phone being the key to a world of knowledge is the same, most of us probably should just look up somethings instead of asking since we have the tools to. Now for my view is that I have a bit of a worrying feeling that the new generations much like our own now are becoming less and less "interactive" I see kids on the internet more often nowadays and I realise that you can no longer joke around like you used to because these kids will take it WAY too seriously and harshly thus it explains why this place is a bit sensitive sometimes, but I’m not saying everyone is a kid for being sensitive, i just mean that most of it does come from them. All in all I wish to see more face to face interactions from current and newer generations as I have seen a decline in that I mean let's be honest, how many of you have actual social skills? How many of you can keep up a conversation without having moments of silence? Just ask yourselves that and comment below on your thought on what else do you think has changed through the times... [spoiler]Welp it's nice to see people actually reading through this post, didin't think anyone would take their time[/spoiler]

  • Well I am 15 years old and live on Brazil and see many things that need be changed really fast, it seems that the more idiot you are the cooler you are nowadays. There are few teenagers that I know that think about the future and respect the older generations, when I see an old forum person talking that this generation is really bad with many disrespectful kids I agree, because it's true, and seems that parents nowadays aren't the same that they were years ago, it seems that kids nowadays don't respect anyone.I thanks everyday that I was raised with my grandparents and that they were old school.
