FIVE WAYS TO UNDERSTAND YOUTH


“The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.”
Socrates

​
Murcurial Shapeshifters -- Protean

Youth, according to Aristotle, are enslaved to their desires. Each day they seek to gratify what their appetite for pleasure dictates.

Qualities worth celebrating:

Bundles of contradictions, on the surface at least: 

Skeptical Yet Naive
Idealistic Yet cynical 
Conservative Yet Progressive
Skillful Yet Awkward
​Social Yet Private
