We’re kinda spoiled with “all the X we could want, whenever we want”.

    Respect is earned. And a lot of these adults have given zero reason for them to be respected. Children are not servants, that’s a wrong and stupid way to look at it.

      Kids doing weird stuff that doesn’t totally conform to the culture is not a respect thing. Its just the evolution of culture. For example when I was a kid, painting your fingernails was almost unheard of. Basically only the hard-core emos or a rock singer or something would do it.

      These days you see young kids painting their fingernails and it’s not a big deal to anyone. I’m the Socrates here because I think it’s weird but I try to stay open minded that things are different now and will continue to change into ways that will seem stranger and stranger to me
