It's ironic that the one generation (today's young generation dubbed "Millennials") which possesses always instant access to limitless information is the most inept and incapable generation ever. They all posses even phones that allow them access to any individual and the internet and yet they still do not use such a powerful tool. These "kids" some now grown, do not even possess the skills necessary to change a tire or fill out a form.
In my generation, adolescence was in your early teens and by 18, you were considered a man. I think today adolescence is until 18 and adulthood isn't achieved until mid 20's.
OTH, I honestly think it's hurt society as a whole, hahing the world at your fingertips. It's made them dumber, lazy. In schools, they're teaching kids to use calculators in elementary school rather than teaching the how to use multiplication tables and long division. It's ridiculous! What this does, it makes kids want to be spoon fed everything.
