Kids these days
"Kids these days" is the belief that the present generation of young people is inferior or deficient compared to previous generations. A study by John Protzko and Jonathan W. Schooler has found that such beliefs have been reported since 624 BCE.[1] This term has been described as being ageist and adultist.[2]
