Wow, im only 19 and I feel the same way.  Seems that younger generations are 
being raised much differantly than I was, and I feel its a turn for the 
worst...

	" Back in the stoneage when we were small, kids used to take their squirrel
	guns to school for after-class hunting.  I don't think there are too many
	kids with the sense of responsibility to do that without shooting someone
	or themself.  Can you imagine the repercussions of bringing a gun to class
	today?  Summary execution at the hands of a SWAT sniper, no questions
                asked.

	So many kids are taught to helpless and stupid; it's a real shame.  At 16
	my grandma was married and had my uncle.  She ran a household, soup to
                nuts.
	Baked, sewed, cared for the family, entertained company both formally and
	informally, raised animals, was a top notch  cook... and the list goes on.
  	There are very few American kids that can do the same today, and I
	firmly believe that they are strongly, if tacitly, encouraged to be as
	completely helpless as possible; grows em up into pliable adults.  I find
	it sad, not to mention something of disgusting, but that is the world in
	which we live.  It's that way because people want it that way. It's easy
	that way.  It's convenient.  It's simple.  It's without real
                accountability
	for parents.

	Such is life, I suppose. "
