[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We didn't fail in educating them. We failed in parenting them. These are cultural issues, stemming from a lack of active parenting and discipline. There's been a large shift in caring for the emotional needs of children a la gentle parenting, which is great, BUT people seem to have forgotten their biggest responsibility as a parent is preparing their child to become a proper contributing member of society. Basic skills like how to show up to your obligations on time. How to speak like a professional. How to dress in an office. How to solve a problem without having your hand held.

Our culture is changing to place less emphasis on these things, so perhaps that's why people are forgetting to teach their kids how to properly answer a phone or that you can't wear ripped jeans to a professional office. [/quote]

Well, since us GenX are sadly more Trumpian than any other generation, and we’re also GenZ parents, I’d say a lot of of us truly are fu(king up. Never thought I’d be so disappointed in my generation. [/quote]

“A generation known for being slackers turned out in big numbers to support Trump. The Associated Press reported that voters between the ages of 45-64, roughly those of us in Gen X, voted for Trump over Harris 52% to 46%, a six-point margin. That’s even wider than the three-point margin by which Trump carried his fellow boomers (51%-48%) and a one-point increase in Gen X support for Trump from 2020.”

That’s outside of GenX, but when you factor in the slightly lowered rate of Boomers, you might extrapolate. Even if you want to call them even, it’s dispiriting. GenX is sadly MAGA. [/quote]
