Analysis: The Next Generation Of Spoiled Brats

981 Words4 Pages

The Next Generation of Spoiled Brats Many of you know about how the older generations always thought down on the ever so famous Generation Y, or more widely known as Millennials. Most Millennials are well into their 30’s now. Since this was the generation to be first introduced to the internet, they were able to invent new objects or innovate their surroundings to be easier to work with. This was portrayed as lazy. Millennials have been stereotyped on being spoiled and having the world handed to them. But in reality, they’ve worked hard to get where they are. Just because they use the internet more than previous generations doesn’t mean they don’t work as hard. Generation Z is proving this to us already. Generation Z ranges from ages 2-19. …show more content…

Most of Gen Zer’s say that they believe in the saying “If you want something done right, you do it yourself.” If you were to ask a Millennial if they would like to work in groups or by themselves, they would most likely prefer being in a group. They’ve just always expected others to be behind them. Generation Z was raised on being independent, to keep to themselves. “Seventy percent of Generation Z would rather share personal information with their pet than with their boss.” Pets don’t exactly have the power to use information against you, but your boss certainly …show more content…

“...in the U.S. -- 55% are Caucasian, 24% are Hispanic, 14% are African-American and 4% are Asian.” says Ruth. With all this new technology, it’s hard not to communicate with other people, especially if those other people have the same interests with each other. Gen Z is willing to learn about other people, that the understanding between borders is so unbelievably great, it’s hard to imagine a war in the near future. Since we have this great diversity within Generation Z, they have learned to be kinder to each other. “Generation Z is open-minded and adaptable, not a group known for fixed opinions or inflexibility.” Gen Z is so accepting of other groups of people that peace on earth is inevitable. But Gen Z isn’t yet in control of everything. The older generations, those who are just getting used to the internet and social media, are still in charge. They are still not used to getting friendly with those who are far away from

  • A Rhetorical Analysis Of The New Greatest Generation By Joel Stein

    673 Words  | 3 Pages

    In the 2013 Time article "The New Greatest Generation," Joel Stein claims that "millennials' perceived entitlement isn't a result of overprotection but an adaptation to a world of abundance"(31). Stein's organizational style appeals to readers because he arranges the article in a way that lures the reader's attention in the beginning, so he can later propose a new outlook. Stein begins describing characteristics of millennials unfavorably in order to overcome those negative characteristics and offer a new, positive perspective. The author initially establishes a negative attitude towards millennials to appeal to the feelings of the older, adult generations. Stein’s structure successfully acknowledges the negative views, for the purpose of

    This group was much quieter than either their Gen Y or Gen X counterparts because they were seemingly engrossed in their phones. Before observing Gen Z, I thought I would see a younger, tech-savvy, cooler version of myself (a millennial). While the group of Generation Z was most definitely tech-savvy they seemed tied to their devices and hardly interacted with the people they came to the game with. After observing the Gen Z group, I realized how their devices are like a lifeline and they spend arguably most of their time looking at screens. Marketing recommendations for Generation Z would be to appeal to their tech savvy lifestyle through non-traditional ads on mobile, social and responsive website and give them a reason to tune into your ad and look up from their screens.

  • The Culture Of Teenagers In The 1950's

    With every new generation of teenagers or young adults, there always seems to be this negative look towards the youth culture. What really strikes me is that it happens with every new generation. It seems like once a person hits their teenage years they suddenly become “rebels” of society, and for what reason? How do most adults see the younger generation? They are young people who have bad manners, no respect for the elderly, they are real tyrants, they do not stand up when elders walk in, they do not listen to their parents or teachers, they talk in the presence of adults, and they eat gluttonously (Socrates).

    An opinion may be appealing to the ear; however, appealingness does not make a statement accurate. In Joel Stein's article, “The New Greatest Generation,” his overall message is generalized to the idea of what effect do millennials have on society. In the first portion of his writing, Stein criticizes millennials’ ways of life using statistical data and stereotypes the entire generation as indolent and self­centered. The second portion of Stein’s article is a counterargument that millennials are not a fruitless generation, and that their way of life may be beneficial to all. Stein creates a compelling argument, however his counter argument is entirely opinionated making his writing an unreliable source.

    Recently, there has been controversy over a certain topic. Are kids deluded narcissists, too coddled, and spoiled? Kids in this generation have awards handed to them like candy, believe that their online appearance is a true reflection of themselves, and are taught from an early age that “life is fair”.
