I often here this from grown ups that kids today are very rude and batameez and dont respect their elders like it used to happen.

Is this actually true or is just our parents exaggarting?

each generation says that about the next one..so I guess as a sign of the end of times it has been around for ages.

the values of each generation change so yes, each generation says that about the previous one.

i think i read somewhere that on the pyramids there was discovered a quote that went along the lines of "the young are lazy and preoccupied with themselves and will bring about the end of the world as we know it"

so yeah each generation says that abt the previous one!

You cannot deny the facts and figures .......look at the increasing crime rate of young offenders and increasing rate of mental and psychological illnesses and diseases.

Also Children are filled with rage now a days.........the main factor for this is ' voilence ' through media and computer and video games. We didn't have all these things 30 or 40 years ago........the rage and the crimes are increasing in every generation and its getting worse bcoz ' things ' are getting worse and we ourselves are responsible for our children's mental behaviour.

Today we are living in ' interesting times ' (not in a good manner)........
Remind me of the hadith.......

When the old have no compassion for the young, when the young show no respect to the old … when children grow angry … Judgment is at hand.

err no actually :rolleyes:

us kids dnt get angry for NO REASON…you might thing this is really stupid or whatever but we do get tension and pressure put on us aswell.
in “those days” u guys dint even know what pressure was! now its all abt equality and rights…therefore this is what we learn :slight_smile:

i think more teenage gupsters should come here and answer to this you know, instead of u guys saying stuff which is so out of the line :rolleyes:

Re: Are kids today more ill-mannered than they were in previous generations?

err how does that work? they are angry through computer games? :konfused:

anyways, you dnt knw the reason for their anger…maybe they were bullied themselves? maybe they are abused…this also leads to kids being dheet or batameez…call it what you want…

Re: Are kids today more ill-mannered than they were in previous generations?

you said also children are filled with rage now a days....and then u dint give a reasonable back up.....media and computer games doesnt count as a reasonable back up

Re: Are kids today more ill-mannered than they were in previous generations?

i only gave 1 big reason violence through games] out of hundreds of reasons of inbalance of child behaviour…and i’m not blaming children for their behaviour or actions.
