What the Adults are Saying.

Oh this younger generation, they are spoiled and entitled and hopelessly glued to mass media.  A gentleman named Bruce Gibney even wrote a book about them entitled, 'A Generation of Sociopaths: How the Baby Boomers Betrayed America'.  That’s right Baby Boomers!  This is what “The Greatest Generation” said about US.

Now, the other side.  Author Sally Kane wrote that Baby Boomers were competitive, goal-oriented, and career-focused—and also nonconformist and willing to question authority.  Compared to their parents’ generation, Boomers were more likely to protest policies and social practices they saw as unjust.

I bring this up for one specific reason.  Everything they said about us (and other generations) are the same basic challenges that we face today.  Substitute the television for the Smart Phone and just listen to the criticism.  I am New Jersey child psychologist, Dr. Steven Sussman.  For decades I have heard it all.  The problems are not new…just the solutions.  Call me at (908) 217-8106.
