My kids are in that generation. And we have plenty to gripe/worry about (my parents probably thought the same). But there are a lot of spectacular humans in that generation too. Things look bad in the news, but I’ve met enough to feel pretty good about the future.
News and social media are skewed very heavily toward those in safe spaces - either to highlight their “complaints” or make fun of them. But there are more than enough great ones to rescue kids trapped in a cave 10-15 years from now. You can bet that the last (and next and next) class of US Navy SEALS will be willing to risk their life to save those kids - and able to do it.
