Every single generation gets accused of creating the worst children ever, and they were just so much better back in the day. It's quite literally a tale as old as time.
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.
Ah yes the alcoholic parent. We pioneered this one ourselves. Quite the accomplishment. Having never seen our parents slam down Natty Ice each day after work, we had no idea what we were getting into.
Never before in history, had anyone ever chosen to have a drinking problem, and kids simultaneously.
If this was true then we would have swapped over by now.
Most people still see NAT as a security system.
