Why do you think it is that young people these days take so long

You should post this on reddit or something.

To answer your question, it's probably fault of our parent's culture, us being sheltered as children and lower wages/purchasing power + internet escapism

Expand on this if you can or want to, please

I think your basic assumption is flawed.

>implying even half of people are healthy, kind, empathetic and tolerant

Genetics. Humans are obviously capable of a lot more than other animals, so comparatively we can't just go hunt with pops on week two. We need more time to accumulate enough energy to allow our bodily systems to grow as your genome instructs and self replicates.

Also we weren't ready for the internet.

I feel like I am empathetic, kind and tolerant. I don't know about healthy though. And I certainly haven't progressed in life like I was "supposed to".

Baby boomers took everything for themselves.

You think other generations did? Do you actually think they were better?

Get real.

I am not american, so I can't be completely sure. I think many of them did, yes.

To wake from seasonal depression and into self actualization: I feel it slow: a volcano under the ocean.

Mass production facilitated a culture obsessed with trading wealth for money, money for space, and space for stuff. My parents are decent people but their house is packed with junk. They're not hoarders in the same way Pluto isn't a planet; a garage sale is long overdue.

I think the ethos underlying much American education is to blame for students' lack of enthusiasm for discovery and self discovery. Rigid daily schedules are boring and grades are just as much a measure of obedience as knowledge or engegement. Slow =/= dumb and fast =/= smart.

Over sensitivity, lack of morals. It's a multitude of things. These are the main ones.

Please, would you elaborate?

Because we became too decadent, technology took over and people just wanted to have fun. Just watch any 80s or 70s film, it's just a bunch of people partying and going wild, extending adolescence. There's no transition into adulthood, even normies are lost they don't know how to grow up

The problem will correct itself
