You are a great speaker and I look up to you and what you have to say :) what do you think the next generation has in store? Many people look down on teens nowadays and I was wondering if you see any potential in us. I feel like as a teen, we could either correct the mistakes of the past or just end up screwing over the world because of pure ignorance. What do you think? Have a nice day~
Read this quote:
“Our youth now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority…they contradict their parents…gobble up their food and tyrannize their teachers.”
Guess who said that? Seriously, guess….
Answer: Socrates. Over 2,000 years ago.
Adults have a habit of looking down on young people. But young people have a habit of growing up and taking responsibility for their world.
(And then they start complaining about the next generation of young people, and so completes the circle of life.)
