People these days act immature and irresponsible because that's the way our society raises and coddles them.
Up until the last few decades...a boy had to become a MAN at a much earlier age.
These days? They get to stay on mommy and daddy's insurance until they are 26 years old.
And the media refers to 18 and 19 year olds as "kids".  |
Well trips down memory lane are great Robbie, but I think you will find that the phrase "active shooter" is a modern addition to the national lexicon.
Anyone who has brought up a teenager will tell you that at their worst they are a toxic mix of hormones, mood swings, vile outbursts and unpleasant odours.
But it passes, and its not personal.
A couple of years later all is well, you fix your relationship with them, and they become decent human beings again. Managing the worst years are tough, but you get there.
So do you really want hormone ridden modern teens shooting up the place because we cannot make laws that move with the times ?
