A few days ago a 20-year-old dude was chasing ppl with chopper. Today a 21yo was found dead in water (maybe suicide?) One wanted to take people's lives, the other (possibly) took his own life. And limpeh thought 20's is the time when one is full of energy, ideal, and ambition to conquer the world! Sigh... ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps asked the same questions as well.... This song won the Song of the Year in last night Grammy Awards 2024 Note : Switch on the subtitles to see the lyrics. Although it was for Barbie, the song certainly strikes a chord with some youngsters as well. Edited February 6 by Starry 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All these things like rising cost of living, climate change, corrupt/racist behaviour (overseas more than here) etc etc, they seem to affect younger generation more.

Jamesc Hypersonic February 6 Share February 6 Our parents brought us up well but we did not bring our kids up well. We spoilt them. We thought we are educated so we know better how to bring up our kids. But which school teach us parenting? Condom broke and I was a parent overnight. Before that I was just a kid. 3 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atonchia Supersonic February 6 Share February 6 That's why I am showing my kids don't be so fixated with material stuff. They need to have a skill set they can be confident with. But the youtubers and tik-tokers showing themselves throwing money everywhere created the impression $$$ just appear from nowhere...... It's like a battle with the current social media trend. I want them able to give up their pre-loved but like almost new stuff during Xmas / CNY to charity that accept such donation. Also understand the value of $$$. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The education system itself has been distorted so much to "encourage" such molly-coddle style parenting. Somehow little by little the system has gradually been hijacked by the liberal left agenda, the "you're ok, I am ok, anything also ok" kind of views, the diversity and inclusion crowd. Raising a whole generation of youth that wilt when faced with tough situations in the adulting stage out of school when they are suddenly stripped of all these over-protective measures.
