I'm honestly surprised it's not more common. Especially in the US. I see nothing but horror stories from teachers about how uncontrollable kids have gotten in recent years. Plus videos of teachers being attacked by their students, or just straight to getting shot by them.

This generation of kids is causing so much trauma for teachers these days, it's insane.

The issue stems from the generation of the parents, the children are a symptom of their environment.

Yeah. A lot of the shitty parents had kids at a very young age this generation and we're seeing the repercussions of that.

You need to be able to take care of yourself before you can take care of someone else.

I wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing more kids raised by their grandparents because their actual parents are shit.

I’d actually hazard a guess that on average, parents are older these days. I don’t think the issue is really young parents, it’s that parents don’t discipline now. They just shove a screen in front of their kid instead of having a meaningful conversation. Parents now were raised with somewhat instant gratification and it’s even worse with their kids.
