Are kids superficial, fake, and mean nowadays?

Always acting Sassy and Mean. She's no longer my Friend now...

Kids at that age are often mean - and also the girls. It's all about being cool.

Isn't that what today's World is? Everyone wants to be Cool, Rich and Famous. Work? Nah, screw that! I want to be living in Los Angeles with a Big Fancy House and not pay a single, bit of attention to all of the Peasants below me.

I honestly wish Kids aren't like this nowadays. You have amazing People working at Companies like Apple, Facebook, Google all working hard to deliver us amazing Products and yet these Kids just treat them like Toys. They aren't Toys! They're Products made for you to use either it be for Communication, Entertainment or Work. Not for showing off your new Fancy IPhone or Jewlery.

It seems to be the case - but it sort of seems natural. Well, kids can be raised to "not be like that". Should that be the case? Anyway, in the current situation, kids aren't going to change - so probably kids (the targets) need to learn to "have the appearance of strength". They don't have to fight - but they need to seem like they can. It's kind of like how a nation has nuclear weapons.

Well...There is a lot of Factors on how this Contributes to their Lifestyle and Behaviour.

I mean what if a Family was Rich and kept on Spoiling their Kids. They're gonna think that they won't need to work because they keep on being given Stuff. Things like IPhones and Money is what Kids are all crazy about nowadays. They don't actually take appreciation or a moment to think about how much work goes into things like IPhones. They just think it's some sort of Toy and then start bragging about it.

Then once a new IPhone is released(Which is pretty much 1 Year Later), they begin begging their Parents to get them that new Phone or they're not going to be 'Cool' or 'Famous'. Phones have essentially corrupted Kids. They've changed how they Behave and how their Life is.

And about Behaviour in General, sometimes Kids start being Rude because of Puberty. As a Kid reaches into their Teenage Years, this is to be expected. You cannot stop it from happening. Or sometimes it can be from People they look up to or what they've seen or played. They'll think it's okay to act like that and thus' they begin being Rude.

But hey. Kids are always changing as they get Older. It's the same with You and Me. We change. Another day of our Life goes by and somethings always going to change on that day. We cannot stop change and there never will be a way to stop it.

Well, the thing is - that once kids start complaining about these brats - they (the kids) get lumped into "primadonna culture". In other words, they get called whiners. Now, I'm cynical about primadonna (snowflake) culture. But I think there is a legit anger at bullying.

It's not really that the kids being bullied are wusses - but actually that the bullies are brats normally.

Kids are not superficial or mean. It is the rate of development in our society through the help of technology that makes children to behave in such manners because they learn and master things faster and better than adults through what they see, feel, hear and touch which technologies offers easily.

A lot of it has to do with parenting and discipline. You have to teach your children respect and boundaries. To do that you have to sit down with them and tell them that there will always be rules that they have to follow. They have to follow the rules in school and be polite. When they grow up, they need to be polite and follow the laws that society has laid down. When they get out of line, it's time for a coaching. You have to keep on them about it.
