I grew up in the '80s and '90s, and life back then was… simpler. Technology didn't rule every aspect of our existence, and social media was just a sci-fi dream. Gen Z on the other hand… Well, they're practically being raised by their smartphones. I definitely admire their spirit to talk back, stand up for themselves, and change social norms, but they're also showing serious signs of communication issues, are overly sensitive, and have the attention span of a goldfish. Plus, they document everything… who wants the world to see them crying? Gen Z does.

Maybe I think all that because it helps me feel less old and more superior, but that's where I'm at right now. One person uploaded a question, asking older generations what they think of the new ones. Scroll down to read the entertaining thread… See what the adults had to say about the matter. Then check out this demanding couple who came to a restaurant only to try picking a bone with the waiter… their mistake.
