There are plenty of generation Zers who are polite, respectful, and want to work. There are plenty of Boomers who are lazy, entitled, and live life with a 'What have you done for me lately?’ attitude. Your argument is superficial, trite, and plays to false divisions. I suggest that if you don’t like the way YOUR son is treating YOU or living his life, then YOU require more from HIM and not make blanket derogatory accusations against an entire cohort of young people, most of whom just want a fair shake in life. Just like everyone else.
