I do agree with you in one aspect. Not ALL 20 somethings are irresponsible. However, all you have to do is observe how most young people act and look at current stats on how many young people do not have health insurance now even though it is cheap and/or subsidized by their employers. Most young adults are not like your three daughters or my own three girls. They, too, learned the value of work ethic from the time they were in high school.
