[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gen Z is awesome. I hear the perennial b*tch*ng about "kids these days," and think to myself that I have no objections to how my kids and their peers conduct themselves. (Other than the normal nonsense that young people have always gotten up to.) [/quote]

GenX'er here and I agree. My young adult kids, and their friends, are generally a hardworking, responsible, and respectful group. They've had to deal with this pandemic, and all the other crazy of the last 2 years, and have done so. It's hard enough being a 'seasoned' adult right now, imagine being like 20![/quote]

+1. As seniors in high school and freshmen in college, my kids lost a lot to the pandemic. They never complained. They just did what they had to do and got on with it. [/quote]

They also quickly got vaxxed as soon as they were eligible and still don’t complain about masks.

Their entire world was taken- school, sports, normal teen hanging out life- while the rest of America went back to bars, they were told not to get grandma sick.

Definitely a lot of their attitude is because of having Gen X parents that have passed on the attitude of ‘whatever, take care of yourself, you’ll be okay’ rather than the entitlement attitude that Boomers passed onto Millennials. ( I’ll duck from those tomatoes 🍅 now!)
