I don't think kids these days think that their childhood was as bad as you think it was. I know some younger guys that are barely cracking their 20s now and it floors me when they talk about how their first video game console was the ****ing Wii. Was well into adulthood at the time that thing was released. I lamented to them how growing up during a post 9/11 world must've sucked, because from my experience as a teenager/early 20s at the time those years kind of sucked. But no, they all sit there and reminisce and talk about how those years were so much better than now. I personally don't get it, but then again I think the late 80s and 90s were pretty great because that's when I was growing up.
