Their youngest son is an emotional wreck. He's a sweet kid but is so overwhelmed by things. It rained when I was over at their house and he was freaked out when some droplets went on his skin. He later became hysterical when they ran out of the frozen chicken nuggets that are the only thing he eats. When he wants to talk to someone he'll only whisper into his mums ear and she will say "Aidan wants to know if you'll play with him".
Parent's can raise their kids however they like, but I watch them raise their 2 sons and I can't help but feel I'm watching a trainwreck in slow motion.

NO.
NOT SPANKING your children and giving "TIME OUTS" can create the spawn.

Gen X overlaps with Millennials.
Both terms are used interchangeably.

My kids are barely teens, (I'm Gen X) the millennials are from both the oldest Gen X and youngest baby Boom.
My kids know about dressing a deer, change car tires+brakes, know that it's OK to punch some one if they touch you in anger, target shoot, raise chickens...........
It is an individual problem with the supposed millennials being lazy or un-motivated (I don't buy it).
The millennials have seen their parents get screwed by corp America, and they are suspect of it. Good for them.

Another thing to consider are these Alt-Left and Alt-Right political groups that are shaping up right now that the Millennials are behind. I think these two groups are bad for America. These two movements are going to do away with grass roots Democratic and Republican ideals in another 2-3 decades once the old guard dies out. These two new ideologies are taking each political wing and pumping them with steroids.
