Really this isnt any different to the generation before or the generation before that. Chart Music has almost always sucked, the majority of people have always been idiots, Teenagers have always been outsiders and a 'great' band (in the sense of impact anyway) only comes around every so often. In short there will always be people standing on soap boxes shouting about how the current generation sucks or is in someway inferior to the last and they should almost completely be ignored... Rock out, peace and sonic love
If you dont like teenagers, you dont like teenagers...just remember you were all young once. Teenagers tend to act rebelious when they have a reason to rebel. But often this 'acting out' is nothing more than a persons frustration at being bossed around and told what to do at an age where to an extent one should have the cognitive ability to make decisions for oneself. Its funny how all the kids I knew that were bossed around and strict parents 'rebeled'. My mother would have never dreamed of treating me like that. As such we have never had a real argument since I was 12. Treat Teenagers like adults, dont talk down to them, let them make their own decisions but always be there for them. That is the recipe for a healthy, intelligent and wise teenager.
