"Our youth now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for their elders and love chatter in place of exercise; they no longer rise when elders enter the room; they contradict their parents, chatter before company; gobble up their food and tyrannize their teachers" Socrates said this in 400 BC so i guess young people have always been jerks ,you just have to get old to notice
Yeah you're right the decline of Greece was brought about by lazy , unpolite teenagers not by sparta's tyranical rule over the other greek cities or by the fact that the romans came along and curbstomped them
As a member of the younger generation of today it upsets me to say that it's true and that it's deeply upsetting to those who aren't like the rest and have to be treated like a stereotype of the typical miley cyrus youth.
