Your title should read that it does not pay to help "SOME" of todays younger generation. As in every generation, some are garbage and some are very good people.
Be confident that you did the right thing to honor the old folks, but the two air heads did the dishonor to you and the parents / grandparents. Dont let a few experiences like this harden your heart to the good young people, their are plenty of them out there.

All you can do is try to get a fair idea of the persons character from that first encounter and try to act accordingly, knowing that your going to deal with a lot of good folks and a few real jerks. Just do not let the jerks bother you so much that you begain to treat everyone as a jerk, thats bad for you and bad for the good guys.
