[quote=Anonymous]Look. I wish all college kids were as mature and thoughtful as fully formed intellectual 42 or 68 year olds. But they're not. Their brains are like the pepsi and mentos experiment, and many of them are good people who are just not totally their best, most fully-informed adult selves. Many of this group are just months or a few years into living away from toxic families or towns for the first time in their lives, and it takes time and immersion to grow up and get smart and make smart decisions 95% of the time. Sure there are idiots who have been and will always be a box of rocks (looking at you, red faced spring break COVIDiots) but this punitive attitude isn't fair. Be patient, be firm, and be CONSISTENT in showing the young adults in your lives how to be good adults, but don't give them a Scarlet C quite yet for being more dismissive or petulant than you are as a 50 year old. Help them see the error in their judgements. - College professor[/quote]
