Generalizations only work so well. Some millennials chastise Gen Z and some support them.

I am an Eldritch millennial and everyone that I know thinks Gen Z is pretty awesome. We're just trying to hold the world together for them.

Funny, because my friends who were teachers all quit teaching.

Is it because of the kids or the admin/parents/political activists/gun violence/low pay?

Yeah. Teaching sucks and I don't know why anyone puts up with it. Mad respect and solidarity to all the teachers out there.

Doesn't mean they don't like Gen Z. They're overworked and underpaid. But I can't stress enough that that's our fault. (I might put more blame on the Boomers running things.) We're not prioritizing education and you can't blame the people in school for that.
