We get tired of people telling us how the real world is and that we're unprepared. We will never neglect education but we always neglect the idea of us never being good enough for anything. We don't believe in hierarchy, we believe in equality. That is why many people reject religion, they think it's about being better than people. It isn't, it's about becoming better than yourself. So don't call anyone anything you know they aren't. Call them who they really are... People trying to be happy. I am 17, in a part of this real world, I admit to my ignorance but do you admit to yours also? Belittle my generation as much as you choose, either way- you'll always be wrong when you say we're all the same.

I think this describes many of my peers viewpoints when other generations try and stamp us with a title.
