Real reason Gen Z can’t cope with life

I cant speak for non whites- theyre just retarded anyway no matter what generation- but white kids today are exactly how they were programmed to be by this perfect system that was designed to do exactly that. You dont teach your enemies children to be strong, especially not the Jews- they hate whites more than anything and want a world full of sycophants
 
My notable experience withe Gen z is when I wear my Trump shirt, or hat out. Women in particular will place their hand on the chest. Mouth agape , and stand there like a universal Gen z distress signal. I think my opinion is supposed to end where their feigned offense begins. I usually just smile, and keep walking.
 
man all i can say is im glad i raised my kids the way i did and beat their asses when they needed it and did the soap or tobasco sauce thing too. glad my kids had me in their phone as "hitler" and not dad. im also glad when they didnt get their way,they said they hated me. because i was doing my job.
were all good friends, now that theyre adults. 2 of the 3 boys went military and are doing very well now in their civilian jobs. the other works for the town. makes good money as a boss. my youngest (daughter) is in the dental field. also, making good money. they too,complain about some of their friends and their co workers and how theyre lazy and lets just say, "moody" as my youngests say. govt dictates curriculum your child learns and rules in the schools.
and things always change.
but society created this problem that we have today, with gen z'rz. the govt also helped create this problem we have with them also.
society says if you spank your kid (because they fucked up) its considered child abuse. but them same fucking karens and kevins would be the first to say your kid is this and is that and wasnt raised properly. how about you shut the fuck up and mind your own business on how i raise my kids!
you sit your kid down,and tell timmy not to do that agan and go for a time out for 2 minutes. while timmy is used to confinement,he becomes one of those kids who grows to be what the article is talking about,or a jail bird. theres no talking to the kid. no time out. the kid fucked up,he gets whats coming to him. theres no reasoning with children. theres demands and lectures grounding swats with let it be the belt,hand,switch or whatever and theres also (my favorite) the soap across the teeth.
does it sound like i was a prick? maybe to some of you and maybe not. but i dont care. if i did,i wouldnt have told you. but have ANY of my kids gotten out of line as teens? yes they tested their boundaries. ever arrested for anything? nope (not yet. but its on them now). we raised our kids with the knowledge that their actions (let it be big or small or pointless) have consequences. everything is a domino effect. and because i did it how i did,the older 2 boys have thanked me for being a prick. were they afraid of me? maybe. but when they were children. but now they respect me.
look you in the eye and give you a firm handshake. because thats how i raised them!
^ Beating children is neanderthal, retrogressive, and produces embittered adults. There are other ways to be firm without physical violence. Parents are supposed to protect their offspring, not beat them into obedient submission.

I believe I've successfully raised four children (two boys two girls), and without striking them even once. Three are professionals in NYC and the other is a truck driver on Long Island. There are much better alternatives to physically brutalizing a child.

**********************************************************************************************************************************************

That being said, I never coddled them. I supported their dreams and put money behind it by fully paying for their College educations. I let them know I expected good results in return, and got them.

The problem with gen z/x is their parent's were too wishy-washy while raising them and never taught them endurance and strength of character. Basically they raised them to be pussies, living at home way past expiration date, both for the parents and the adult body/child mind offspring.

My children were raised being taught that life is a competition, there's no excuse for weakness, and the winners always rise to the top.

dude i didnt abuse them. didnt mean to make it sound like that,if thats how it came off. got the swat when needed.
everyone has a different way of doing things. because my way wasnt the same as yours or others way,dont mean its wrong.
shit... the way i was raised? fuggedaboutit....
and im sure im not the only one either. some had it worse than us!

Gen Z cops a lot of flack for being snowflakes – and they are.

Many of them can’t cope with life. Any speech or idea they don’t like is offensive, criticism is insulting – and they can’t hold down a job.

It’s not entirely their fault, though.

A large part of it is the way they’ve been raised and educated.

This masthead reported earlier in the week that, according to an industry survey, three quarters of American companies have been unhappy with their Gen Z employees and 60 per cent were sacking newly appointed university graduates within a year.

The biggest complaints were that young workers were unprepared, unwilling to complete a full work day, wanted to start late and could not communicate properly.

The Daily Mail also quoted recruiter Tammie Christofis Ballis, who said young people were now suffering from “interview anxiety”, including being afraid to pick up the phone to a potential employer and even taking their parents along as moral support in interviews.

That doesn’t just happen in a vacuum.

Mental health has far more care and awareness than it did a few decades ago – and rightly so – but the pendulum has swung so far that any kind of uncomfortable experience is a major issue.
Kids are no longer taught resilience and are stripped of all responsibility.

There is no danger in life. All the fun equipment has been ripped out of playgrounds out of fear that a child might hurt himself or break an arm.

They aren’t trusted to leave on their bikes in the morning with mates and return when the sun comes down – they must be in sight at all times.

And when they are out of sight, they’re now often tracked via an electronic device.

Those devices have become a poison – enslaving kids to a digital world instead of the real one.

Is it any wonder they can’t communicate properly when a large portion of their interactions are no longer verbal or face-to-face?

The concept of winning and losing has been dispensed of in favour of everyone receiving a participation medal.

Junior sporting leagues no longer keep scores or ladders. There are no finals – just the “fun” of having participated.

But that’s not the real world. There must, in all facets of life, be winners and losers.

Sometimes you succeed and sometimes you fail. But if you don’t learn how to deal with that at a young age, then of course it will seem like the end of the world when you’re a young adult.

Winning in your football competition or the school sports day teaches that effort and hard work are virtues.

It also teaches sportsmanship and how to appropriately handle success.

Losing demonstrates that you can’t succeed all the time and how to handle the sadness of failure.

Moving out of your parents’ home at 18 was once a right of passage – now it’s a daunting proposition.

My grandfather left school at 14 to become an apprentice butcher, which wasn’t uncommon in his day, in part to support his family.

I’m not suggesting that children should be yanked out of school and sent to work full time, but it certainly instilled a sense of responsibility that is lacking today.

The process of developing responsibility – be it for yourself, a property, a job or a family – has been delayed.

Far too many school leavers go to university to study degrees in which they have little interest because they’ve been told it’s the right thing to do, thus delaying their development even further.

So is it any wonder that Gen Z can’t hack it in the workplace?

They’ve been patted on their backs their whole childhoods, told that they’ve done a good job no matter what, holed up in their bedrooms staring at screens – and now the idea of applying for or holding down a job seems impossible.

Young people aren’t inherently lazy, but they have been raised in a world that encourages laziness and mediocrity.


Couldn’t agree with you more!!

ww3 should fix this
 
As a person born 2006 and just turned 18, i tottally agree that I find it hard to communicate and to be in an interview for a job.
Want a little secret tip? Find out who you’re interviewing with, and research that person. Find out where they’re from, school they went to, interests, etc. and find something in their profile you can relate to. Then weave that into your interview. ‘I’ve always enjoyed the fishing trips we’d go on with my family, growing up.’ ‘Oh you’re interested in fishing, me too etc’

Also, try to take an active interest in the company you’re applying for. Look them up, too. Find out what they do.
 
I'm a millennial, I think, I was born in 89. But I agree, I work in a factory warehouse where they build parts for a truck company, ever since covid all these new and younger employees just don't want to work and anything past 8 hours is "too hard" and "immoral", lately this company has taken a dip in productivity and quality. But the upper management are afraid to do anything because they're afraid the employees will retaliate by suing them
 
It’s just the result of 1st world kids becoming too comfortable. And it isn’t their fault truly, it what it is. Isn’t a comfortable society what we’re working towards? It’s just the problems start when it’s our 1st world parents who talk about how tough and badass they were when they were younger but never had to worry about what they had to eat the following day, being dragged from their home by gangsters, or a bomb being dropped on their house. It’s a lack acknowledgment for the privileges given to us.

I feel sorry for Gen Z in many ways. Their brains have not had the environment required for adequate development, based on the millions of years of mammalian evolution taken to create the human brain. As far as I am aware, Facebook wasn’t around 200,000 years ago 😂.

Kids need to experience pain, hardship and difficulty and then be shown ways of managing the situation by calm primary caregivers. Hardship is a natural aspect of all living things. But kids these days are bubble-wrapped and thus can’t develop the neurological systems for dealing with the real world. Society has a responsibility to change things as a whole. Like letting kids play fight in school, or break their ankle in a playground. There’s no wonder self/harm is increasing. The brain is in need of some pain to manage.

For a laugh, a couple of Gen Z presenting messages I had at work late last night…

“Started coughing 10 minutes ago”

“Vaginal bleeding” it was a normal period (In an actual woman)

“Rotten egg burps”
I could tell you’re old and wrinkly when you said facebook. As if anyone below the age of 30 is using that at the current
 
I was raised by a boomer and Gen X'er. I'm the burned out "Why can't an astroid hit the earth now" Millennial. Been raised all my life to work hard and you'll be rewarded greatly etc... My youngest worker is Gen Z. He's the reason why I'm losing what very little sanity and patience I have left. You have too continously remind him to stay on task, to do his job, hell I've had to remind him of his breaks!! It's like having a kid on a leash. Like I would have completely understand if it was ADHD like me.. Nope! He's just that airheaded and nonchalant. There also is a lack of thinking before speaking, such as yesterday. Within an hour he went from figuring out how to make a multi textured pocket pussy (with a Pringles can, a wet sponge, and steel wool) to asking me out loud "HEY BOSS!! YOU'RE AUTISTIC RIGHT?! ARE YOU THE MATH AUTISTIC BECAUSE I NEED HELP ADDING THIS ALL UP!!!" I've never had anyone wear my patience this thin, and I've had my fair share of dealing with assholes, but him? I've told the rest of my guys "If I dissappear, it's because I finally said fuck it, walk into the woods, and live my life as a cryptid... Or because the other supervisor has me thrown down a well in his basement."
