[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids just entered college. When they were in high school I would check their phones regularly, texts, photos, everything. I used to joke with them that they weren't even doing half the crap we did in the 80s. I think there is some research though that backs it up as well. However I would argue that these kids are more stressed and as a result have more mental health issues. [b]I'll also co-sign on the drinking in college - that seems definitely worse these days. [/b][/quote] Really worse? I doubt that. I don't see how it can actually be worse than what it used to be. Not to stir up any negative feelings, but I remember when the Kavanaugh hearing were going on thinking about how the drinking/party culture that seemed to be the norm at his HS basically reflected my own experience. I just don't get the feeling that the average kid is still going to parties and getting wasted every weekend, like they used to. [/quote]
