How is that hypocrisy? Most people who are adult, have been a teen before, and can recognize that of all the things teens are blessed with, wisdom is rarely one of those things. It's why we make tons of mistakes as kids/young adults, but it's a necessary part of growing up. Also, smiley face, usually denotes a joke. But, I can go either way with it if you prefer. I can cite any number of dumb teen actions that I've seen personally, read about, or did myself. It's nothing to be ashamed of, as long as you learned from it. |
Okay, right. But from my experince, adults aren't often blessed with much wisdom either. At least kids will listen to you when you give them advice.
I am not infatuated by the younger generation, don't get me wrong. I'm in terror because of many of the things I see them doing. I worry that they won't wise up, living in a world like this. Every new generation of kids creates a different generation of adults, so I don't think they're really comparable to anything, but what the future will bring, and who they'll be when they grow up, we've yet to see.
