The quality of the generations depends basically on the quality of their education. Today's youngest generation is beset by the NEW problems of Facebook and even darker web media that has POWERFUL psychological factors built into their software - that has the purpose to keep them on longer (24-7) for advertisements. While on they encounter BULLYING, BODY SHAMING, and other negativity, which messes with their heads (brains) to the point of producing suicides in mostly females, but also 25% of teen suicides are boys.
......In total, we have a WEAKER modern generation DUE to FACTORS of manipulated web-media that the US did NOT have problems with before about the recent DECADE. Our generation had ONLY TV, radio, and movies - all of which were REGULATED forcibly by government or industry standards.
.........What standards protect today's early teens? .......NOT Government protection, NOT industry protection, basically NOTHING.
...........I believe that the problems are the elimination of UNIONS, outsourcing to China, the CONCERTED effort to WEAKEN PUBLIC EDUCATION, and the FAILURE of the US Government to regulate Facebook, Instagram, and others (which is directly comparable to the government's failure to regulate the Tobacco Industry and PROTECT its citizens from LUNG CANCER !!!!! Can we NOT learn from our Historic mistakes as a society and country????
