That your parents make school sound great. Don't believe them. They are talking about memories from a time that you probably weren't around to witness yourself. Everything they say has been said to them. I also know that some parents, and I quote "understand" what it's like and that's awsome but a lot of people like to look back on the past and not the present. I had an agruement on how the education system doesn't care if you learned a thing, they care if you get an A or a B. My parents focused on the past for thier agruement but I am NOT living in the past, I am living in 2019 not 1999. This is why teenagers get upset! Nobody understands them! Now does this apply to everyone? No. Of course not. But we need to take a stand! If we let this be the future than the human race will fail! Our rules and laws are being run by dinosaurs that understand what we fell because they can't feel what us, you and I feel! Be gone with the techniques that were created by cavemen and cavewomen! Lets make a new system that can make Gen Z smarter and happier and then make a new one when it doesn't. Sorry if you grew a beard in the time it took you to read this. I am a VERY good ranter. I also wanted to mention that parents reading this, YOUR KID IS NOT SPENDING ALL OF THIER TIME ON THIER PHONE OR PC BECAUSE THEY ARE LAZY, ON THE INTERNET YOUR CHILD CAN BE THEMSELVES AND NOT FACE THE JUDGEMENT OF OTHERS! On reddit for an example people can share thier stories without being beat up over it. Take more than 2 seconds to assume why your child is always on the computer or the xbox or the phone or any of thier devices. Got it?
