Re: Infantilization of an entire generation

[(Anonymous)]

Old fogey here, and honestly, it's hard to say. Every generation thinks the generations that come after have it easier, and in some ways, they're correct. It's just that you have to remember that sometimes "easier" just means a whole new set of problems. For example, I grew up in a community that was pretty racially homogeneous and as a POC I found that quite difficult at times. There was no internet to reach out to other people in my situation, and while I had plenty of white friends, they didn't always understand the problems I faced as a non-white kid. I didn't have a bad childhood, but it sometimes felt very isolating and lonely and there wasn't much I could do about that.

But on the other hand, I never had to worry about all the stupid stuff I said and did as a kid being immortalized forever and distributed around the world in the blink of an eye, either. When I was a kid, you could still reasonably expect to go to school and get a job right out of college, save up money and buy a car/house in a few years and be established and on your own before you were 30. That was a given, back then. It's not anymore.
