As a parent, I think my duty is to teach my kids all important life skills as much as possible so that by the time they are an adult, they don't need us for much (except support if needed). I see a lot of young kids these days who are clueless and not sure what to do. Some of it I would tie back to parents not exposing them to enough things. But who knows.
- 999900000999 5y agoWhile free will is often debatable, I think at a point it's up to an adult to decide what that adult wants to do. If you at 24 decide you don't want to finish college and you don't want to work, that's your right. I definitely would blame parents who enable this behavior and don't just kick the kids out. As far as I'm concerned, if I meet someone in their late 20s or early 30s who still doesn't want to work, I don't really care what their problem is. I don't need to hear a backstory about how their bosses mean to them when they were 19 and they swore off working forever. I simply know people like that can cause very real damage to my life and I see to avoid them. I have found insurgent cities there's a far higher concentration of these folks, which led to me moving a few years ago. Again, I don't care why Billy or Mindy doesn't want to work. I just know I'm not letting them in my life.
