I'm 17 years old. It's honestly a tough world out there to be honest. The pressure of succeeding in school only to realize that after you graduate, you're unemployed is devastating to the minds and the hearts of us. It's sad when pretty much my whole life has been based on tragedies one after the other. The OKC Bombing of 1995 then 9/11 Attacks in New York. Virginia Tech Massacre, Columbine High School. Sandy Hooks. Now this.
I'm not going to say anything really what causes us to be so...yeah. But I can say that younger people, overall, can be more exposed to a lot of things thanks to technology (I wouldn't blame technology though) and tend to suck in a lot of things more than the older generation do.
