Middleclass tendencies.

The middle class is a varied class with peculiar behaviour … But today let me pick the middle class age bracket of 21 – 28 years (millennials) as an example (& not all of course, but a disproportionate segment that I have personally either observed or interacted with – maybe someone else has had a different experience): –

– talented and exposed (to information) as they may be they are an entitled class, i.e. they strongly feel the world/people owes them in so many ways (success); they suffer from chronic impatience and want everything to happen instantly
– they have a sense of narcissism cloaked as ‘personal philosophy’ and need constant recognition to exaggerate their accomplishments (suffer from severe low self-esteem) i.e. that’s why they often stay online seeking validity from the world with the internet as a buffer – always commenting & having an opinion about everything (& nothing?)
– they are ‘spoiled brats’ in the sense that they do not feel they need to give anything but rather it is always what they can get …

I fear for this generation because in 15 – 20 years time they will be fully mature adults but as such a demographic without a real sense of direction. [Sadly] this demographic is also the most prone to drug abuse, suicide and mental illness.
