When everybody looks at our generation of kids, they always call us the misfits - you know, like we just don't give a damn.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I should be so lucky to be a misfit. I aspire to be a misfit.
I get a little cranky with the whole business about kids not having attention spans. This reminds me of the usual business of thinking that the next generation is hopeless. Every generation has said that about every younger generation.
Children, a lot of times, can't make their parents wrong because they have to live with them, because they have to love them. And when you're young, you can't get on your Big Wheel and go down to the Best Western. You've got to live there and you've got to figure it out.
While children are struggling to be unique, the world around them is trying all means to make them look like everybody else.
When I get out across the country and listen to people, the resentment that I see and the frustration that I see is that we have a generation of people who are fairly convinced that their kids are not going to have a better quality of life or a better future than they will.
I grew up a misfit. I never fit in.
It is no wonder that people are so horrible when they start their life as children.
I've always identified with the misfits.
I freely admit that I am a bit of a misfit.
Each generation looks to its children to keep our society moving and to make life better.
