The daily digest email is to them what a calculator is to you - an obstacle to learning how to do something that, in your respective times, is critical to navigating basic social expectations and in most cases, to holding a job.
I don't mean to be rude about it, but we should all try to be a little more tolerant of those who have different skills than we do.
Thank you. I generally stop reading any thread that only trashes the youths of today.
The fact of life is that they have skills that are necessary to their generation, but not even to mine. Most of today's kids are really used to a credit/debit card system. Why? because so many transactions use that - not cash.
Please think twice before you simply dismiss the "younger" generation as stupid, lazy, and/or incompetent.
