For as long as mankind has existed, people have been complaining that younger generations are too soft. If anything, it's one of the few things humankind has been incredibly consistent about.
What evidence do we have that people are softer, more fragile and less capable to solve problems?
If anything I think younger generations are faced with much bigger collection of much bigger problems than previous generations had to face... problems that they haven't caused at all that older generations continue to make worse. I feel terrible that the responsibility for saving us all has been dumped on younger generations.
Truly, I think we should all be doing everything we can possibly can to make the lives of future generations better than our own.
