70 year olds have had that same sentiment throughout history. Change (progress) is harder for some than others.I was 30 years old forty years ago, and I don't recall anyone calling for unlimited illegal immigration, abolishing all college debt, free college for everyone, Medicare for all, abolishment of the 2nd Amendment, free healthcare for illegals, abortion at 9 months and beyond, not allowing free speech on campus, etc. This has all come along in the last 40 years, so I would say 79 is right.
“The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.”
― Socrates
