Thank you for sharing this. Having read it, I feel kinda stupid. My teens were all about just getting through HS, parties, bonfires and generally all sorts of stupid things you do as a kid. I did not think thoughts on the level of 'my generation'. That level of abstraction did not even occur to me. I was just very lucky to have cohort full of very smart kids, so even with all HS drama, I managed to learn a lot. I dunno. In a sense, we had it easier. Mistakes were not live streamed. At worst, they were remembered. I do not envy the pressure teens feel today. Not participating in this at all risks missing out on a chance to 'stand out'.
