Generation Next is going to be every Parent's most feared Nightmare.Today's Young Generation has it all in terms of Financial Security.They are mostly born with a Silver Spoon with their Parents earning very well.There are a few factors that leads to them straying away:
1)Pampering/protecting them so much so that they think they can get away with anything - lying,cheating,insensitiveness and many such things.
2)Easy Money:Most of the GenX has an attitude of being pompous and materialistic.To them Money can buy everything
3)Options & Distractions:When you provide the GenX child with many options they act as severe distractions to him and he simply annot have focus on the more inportant things in Life.In combination with being Materialistic these Distractions leads to an erosion of Values and Qualities that can otherwise potentially make these children successful in life and achieve something.
4)Family,Environment & Company:The most important factor that has an overwhelming influence on the Child and his Growth.There is a need for a great Support System in the family,a positive environment and the company of good friends and such other people around the Child.
Only if the above things are achievable does it ensure a good development of the GenX kid.Its tough in today's times but not impossible.

uhhmm..
hi, to tell you, im one of them. maybe used to be but my own insights about this is that::
they're still trying to find their selves. i mean, they're still on a part of the life that deals with finding your own identity.
with much respect dear elder, but think about it, someday when you see them again, you'll take a great applause to appreciate them. :D

Nope... better left to themselves.These are all short term activities teens do.They'll eventually see their mistakes.why get involved unless you know the person and care about him/her..? They cant party forever...They'll come back to their senses sooner or later....!!!
