Don't want to sound like a boomer as I all to well remember what an awkward and angsty teenager I was 15 years ago but I am continuously baffled by how poor the interpersonal skills are of most teens. Between each other they seem to reenact the trashiest reality shows by the sound of it and when talking with someone else they are like a fish out of water.

Sounds like we’re about the same age. I work in a field where I am in contact with a lot of high schoolers and school counselors and related education professionals. I have heard from a lot of people that the 14 year olds who went into two years of school closures did not come out as fully developed 16 year olds when in-person life was allowed to start back up again. Certainly it is our place as olds to “kids these days” the younger generation, but I think there’s probably more to be said for the stunted development of teens in 2023 than there was when we were dumb teens ourselves
