No offense taken. I was not speaking of spoiled kids that's a suject all together...
Everything depends about everything: how brought up, abuses, medical, poor or rich...
I am 48 and as for generation it's an old terminology. There was a time in recent history where people where arrested for spanking their kids. About that time is when we started seeing more and more minors doing serious crimes.
The area, town, city, state is also a factor.
Personal experinece with ones in my family, friends and neighbors speak of what the young adults of 20... are doing with their lifes, or Not doing.
But the drug issues, rebellion, blah blah.... is not understandable to the extreme that they are.
