I personally feel that the younger generation are smarter than their parents, they act, learn and react faster than what we used to do in our olden times... Do you beileve this is true, and do you by any chance understand the logic or the concept behind it??

Each generation fo young people have the time,have had their own arrogance,his ambition,as well as their own supercilious.However,really proud of the previous generation,must be from the hands of their own things to caged.If the younger generation just learned how to compromise with en environment,learned more quickly into the environment,and enjoy a happy environment,so smart or hell!

I agree that younger generation is smarter than old person. With new technology they can adopt easily to it and with the help of nutrient that comes from the milk. And they inherit both knowledge of their parents. That's only my theory. Lolz. hehe!

True...I do believe that. I remember someone saying that its because of the milk. The milk that the new generation is drinking has stuff that can make you smart or something like that.

Hi there :) I also honestly sometimes think that younger generation are smarter nowadays because they are updated with technology so they get to learn more. but the years that went through our parents is what makes them wiser :) i personally believe that people have different intelligence and that shouldn't just be based on their know-how in technology. :) i guess younger generation nowadays are smarter in some ways, but also in some ways parents are still smarter than us :)

Hi, Nice topic. yeah i agree with u. younger generation used to be more smarter than their parents. coz i think now a days so many medias have there to learn for them. as it was not there or were few at our time/ parents time. so they were smarter at their time when they were kid. but now a days kids are so smarter. they are grasping anything very soon where as u will take an ample of time to learn it. but they didnt. the reason behind that can be as they are younger have eager of learning new things and have eager of try and error certain things. this may make them more starve of technology and other things and may make them more smarter. Thanks for Topic. Have a gr8 day ahead.

I think there is more technology around that young people must be familiar with because no job nothing anymore can be done without this knowledge. So with the advancements technology has made, kids have evolved with it, grown up with it, adapted to it. In that aspect I think kids are smarter more hip to new things around, but if you go back to fundamentals, basics, parents still got it down. They still are smarter about what's important; about life. They know the lessons, that only through experience, over time, and mistakes, that can be learned. Technology has also helped us to reach and achieve things faster, it's not much to do with being smarter, it's just using other ways, that weren't available before. It's an upperhand really. It's some parents being able to provide what most dream of, a better life for their kids, what they never had as kids...I think most children have that today, because of our technology.
