haha I agree. The neighbor kid gets out of his car and for some reason think it's ok to walk over to my trash can, lift up the lid and throw his cup of soda away......He looked right at me too.....I just so happened to be out cleaning my garage. It's not a big deal but it's this "me" or the world revolves around "me" attitude I can't stand about young kids nowadays. And his mother doesn't say anything to him or was oblivious as usual. If my kid did that I would have said hey don't throw your crap away in someone else's trashcan without asking.

I was at the park the other day walking my dog and there were three adolescent kids running around. No problem right? Wrong....these little fockers were running around laughing as they were screaming at the top of their lungs........this is right across from an old folk's home and a usually quiet neighborhood. I'm all for kids being kids and acting crazy but for god's sake ............these kids were screaming like they were in a haunted house and for no reason.......but guess what the worst part is???? Their idiot mother was right next to them laughing..............

I think people in general nowadays just have this attitude like they could give a crap about how their actions and behavior affects others. We can blame kids all we want but at the end of the day they usually have too stupid parents raising them. I live in a very uppity middle class neighborhood in OC and nowhere is it more apparent. So many spoiled kids and clueless parents.

Don't get me started on the idiot mexicans who bring their babies and little toddlers into the hopsital units and let them run around loud and crazy. I say mexicans because I never see any other people bringing their kids. It's just not a place for kids to be for health reasons number one, least of all babies.

Like I said stupid parents everywhere.

My first day of high school was September 11, 2001. Not sure how much "real worth" I am supposed to produce 10 years later but calling us the worst generation when we were 13 and 14 years old on 9/11 is probably the stupidest thing I have ever read on these forums. It looks like you need to research why we are where we are.
It started with "trickle down" economic policies and deregulation during Reagan and the wide spread corruption blossomed throughout the 90's and got even worse under GW Bush.

Baby Boomer's love affair with wars abroad and Corporatocracy at home in addition to living beyond their means have caused many to describe them as the "Worst Generation".

Those born after 1970 will have to take solace in the world of fiction and video games. They'll never even come close to achieving this.

Not seeing the big issue here. I can see if someone was dumping trashbags in your can but a cup? What's the problem with that?

I like how you say, yeah Google and Facebook and all... but what else? The oldest people in your sample would be 40, relatively young. Yet, this generation has produced amazing things, revolutionizing the way we live. And you're not impressed?

Each generation is the product of the preceding generations. So who is to blame?

Sure, I can agree with that. But who raised them that way, failed to instill a sense of work ethic, failed to teach core values, and decided they needed to be their kid's friends rather than their parents?

Are you for real?
I guess you prefer he just throw it on your lawn.

And oh my goodness, kids playing in a park and making noise in the middle of the day. I guess the only thing worse would be crying babies in the hospital nursery.
