I tried to find a transcript of the show yesterday but it's not available yet. He lays it all out there in the first 3 minutes.

• 58% more 18-29 year olds scored on the Narcissism Scale than in 1982.
• 40% believe they should be promoted every 2 years regardless of performance.
• 4x more would rather be an assistant to a celebrity than the CEO of a major corporation.
• More 18-29 year old live with their parents than with a spouse.
• 10% of all grandparents live with at least one grandchild.

Technology has coddled the kids. I almost wish no one had cell phones.

Not to side with millinials, but who created the economy they live/work in, and who raised them?

So who raised these shitheads? Seems like if parents wouldn't spare the rod and actually parent their children a lot of that crap would have been nipped in the bud.

I care about this just as much as I've always cared about what Doctor Phil says.

Can we just stop using the word millennialis? And can we stop calling people doctors just because they have TV shows geared toward ignorant housewives?

I had one sitting behind me at the hockey game.

He was jabbering like a school girl, and then asked the girl who was with him, if Edmonton was in Canada, it sounded Canadian, but he wasn't sure.

I was in awe, and told my wife, how fricking embarrassing.

People will act as poorly as they are allowed to. If millennials are acting this way, it's because someone is encouraging or enabling that bad behavior.

I'm not advocating for my fellow POS millennials, but why do older generations get to avoid some of the blame for why these stats exist?

You raised the millennials. You created the economy/environment we live in. You still control the job market, education, and property.

Seems like if you raised millennials, and they turned out with better heads on their shoulders than these stats indicate, why bitch about it?

Millennials didn't frick up the economy.
Millennials didn't raise millennials.

I love when other generations shite on the millennials like their shite don't stink.

Well, I guess millennials can just pack it up and concede now, the great Dr. Phil has come out against us.

The only people to blame in this situation are the parents.

Also, I wonder what he is defining as a "millennial". I'm a millennial, born in 87, and I don't know anyone who falls into any of those categories.

People on this board be like

"Gawd Damn Millennials! Good for nothin generation!" then proceed to go beat off to Millennials on the ole PC, listen to millennials on the radio at the ole tailgate, and constantly talk about them in general to the point of obsession.

Sorry we wrecked the economy 10 years ago when we were ages 10-19.
