Does every generation complain about the generation after them? How different is this generation from the generations that came before? There is a span of eight years between my youngest and my oldest. Are some of the differences between them experiential? Are they different because the older had less channels of television? because she didn't have 16x9 HD? Are they different because the standards I hold them to are different? What are the standards? What were the standards back then long ago? Where are the sociologists when we need them? Is this generation more violent because of video games? Are they disrespectful? Few people know my vocabulary. Archie and Veronica, Howdy Doody, the Flinstones...black and white and 3 channels. Was there a revolution? When did it occur? How do we raise compassionate, caring non-materialistic children when the media is so pervasive and persuaisive?
