Same with most birds, including chickens; and dolphins, believe it or not. Dolphins are a strange case, because on the one hand they've been documented holding the head of a sick dolphin above water so it can breathe while it heals, but on the other hand, they've also been documented as randomly killing one another for no apparent reason (territorial, sexual, etc.). I guess they're just moody, like people. Monkeys are the same way. A lot of animals are cold blooded cannibals.

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." From Plato's Republic, attributed to Socrates. The more things change, the more they stay the same. “The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place

So sad. Hope it's not too late to get the bacon train back on the track...I was really enjoying this.

I mean, I gave you "generally" and "proportional", I didn't throw in the lower SAT scores or anything like that...you know, proof. I guess Orwell was right in some ways. Thanks for recognizing my generation's conception as such (a general idea) and not as a misconception. As to wisdom, long before Orwell it was understood that wisdom comes with time...or have you never heard the term "wise beyond one's years"? Your elders have been been through much of what you have been through, gone through much of what you are going through, and learned lessons from much you have yet to experience. I've always found my elders to be assets. But only when I've taken the time to listen, not just hear. Do young people still call that: "Droppin' the knowledge"? ;-) Apparently, you think I didn’t know your post about 17 year-olds was directed at the person who brought them up.

Or is that just a popular conception of those in your generation? I'm sure your parents' generation had a similar gripe about your generation and theirs before them. I'm sure that most of my generation will feel the same about our own posterity. As the George Orwell quote goes, "Every generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it." P.S. My post, 27.2, was directed at MOMMYDEAREST not at you. Really? Or is that just a popular conception of those in your generation?
