re: Gen X’ers have ruined America

Way too many soft people in this world!!
Doesn't matter the "generation" it is the soft idiots that are killing this country!

Lmfao

Is this a troll post? Gen X’ers children are typically like 10 to 16.

Post has to be made by a boomer who just so happened to parent a Gen X’er

Born in 1967, so I’m on the early side of Gen X. Both of my kids are grown and on their own.

Beat me to that exact comment about GenX children being Gen Z'er. My Gen Z kid is very apolitical.

You really have to go back to the Warren and then Burger courts. Eventually it eroded our schools and now our entire society. It started when liberals got ahold of our Courts. Took away the ability to teach about God in schools, took away the ability of children to be disciplined and almost completely took over higher education. A generation and a half having now lived in that life and this country is fortunate to have lasted this long. It was only a matter of time.

Obviously, there are generational differences over large time spans, but people within 7-8 years of each other generally had similar experiences in life unless that span straddled some major technological innovation or major event.

The generations are interesting to talk about but someone born in 1976 didn't have a vastly different upbringing than someone born in 1982.

Good points. My grandfather’s generation and I are quite different. His first recollection of technology was the automobile. Mine was man landing on the moon. Today’s generation was high speed internet. He grew up in a time where you had to be a really good shot in hunting because the family depended on it during the depression to live on, and you couldn’t afford missed shots as ammo was an additional expense you couldn’t afford. I grew up in a time where you just go to the store and get what you want whenever you need it. Today’s generation has other people cooking for them and an ap on their phone to order it and deliver it to their house.

When I compare my generation, my dad’s generation, and younger generations to my grandfather’s I come to the conclusion that we are all pretty much spoiled rotten children who’ve never really known hard times to appreciate that which we have, and are probably least prepared to do without it If hard times revisited us all once again.

Wait...I thought Millennials were the ones that ruined america? Are were changing the narrative again? Let me know the story line for this one.

We got our asses beat all the time. A parent used to be at home raising the kids and teaching values and what it meant to be a polite member of society. Now they are raised with TV, video games, and day care.
