Hope you are right. Do not doubt they are tired of woke nonsense but that theyhave been sadly under prepared for the world they have to live in as adults. That includes the socializing we old farts underwent which provided enough scar tissue to withstand the social injuries encountered in every day life.

I was just talking with an old buddy about "normal" childhoods, where we learned to deal with hearing NO, bullies, and having to work hard to win.

It made me the GD independent I have been.

I put my son thru a lot of "adversity", and he is now very capable of dealing with whiny useless pos that will surround him.

I read some John Rosemond, a child shrink from Charlotte, who forwarded the idea, that we have raised children very successfully for thousand of years, and that the current leftist vermin decided they knew how to do it better. 40 years later, we see the result. I also saw this coming in the 80s, when I worked adolescent psych.

I am still optimistic about this current crop of kids.
