I couldn't even make it through her rant. Her video and her attitude offends "ME"!
Can't help but wonder why the drastic change in the youth of today compared to the youth of, say, 100 years ago. I think for the most part there are 2 reasons: 1) kids have it MUCH easier nowdays. Let them travel back 100 years - no shopping malls, no cell phones, no internet, no personal car. Often times kids had to work to help support the rest of the family, even when that meant working in sweat shops or delivering newspapers. It's what you had to do to survive, and it wasn't just about "your" survival, but that of your entire family!
2) I think animals also play a huge role in how kids turn out. If a kid has ever had livestock, and the health/well-being of the livestock could make or break that family, then you did everything in your power to make certain the livestock were tended.
In short, life used to be about more than just oneself.
I think it's really difficult for those of us who were born/raised in the old world, and now see this new world, and find out that our hands are tied. What can we do? ...Beats me! But these kids will eventually grow into adults, and MANY will not have the fortitude to be the provider that their families need for them to be. I see lots of problems in the future of the younger generations.
Life used to have a way of weeding out those types - the ones who just wouldn't/couldn't get with the program. It was called "Survival of the Fittest", or maybe "Only the Strong Survive". Whichever, it seems to be fading into the past rather quickly. Eventually there will be a reset......but by then, will it be too late?

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Journey to Ankeny - by Cindy Ladage. We left Illinois on the first day of July and headed north and west for Ankeny, Iowa. Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
