SEE... now you're getting closer to what i'm trying to say. Why do we lose interest the older we get? Why do we stop believing that we can actually make a fucking difference to anything?
priorities change.. at 21 i felt invincible.. now i feel like strumming my guitar and making my kids giggle... i think in our western world there is nothing worth getting that heat up about really... but if i lived in fucking Chad or something and i had to walk 8 miles a day for rice and all 9 of my wifes had HIV but no drugs to fight it off then i'd have a reason to be angry and i might be willing to die for some form of change ... but here i get angry at not being able to get a good reception on radio 2.. priorities and a realisation that we, in Scotland anyway, have very little to fight 'the man' about..
oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

I don't think we lose interest HH, I think we just mature. Life experience, different experiences, wisdom, etc. just make you see things differently. You understand a bit more about where you can make a difference and where you just go with the flow (if it is not totally against what you believe in) - a compromise. This does not necessarily mean you are giving in, just being able to understand various points of view better. Some may take this understanding further and feel they are not satisfied with compromise and still want to change the world. Anyway, that's what I think.

Thanks.. you could be right. I think a lot of people DO simply lose interest also. And some just give up and realise that's just how it is.

my priorities really haven't changed. I still feel like a teenager in some ways because I can't seem to make the changes I want to make and do the things I want to do. I have molded my education so that I should be able to make changes, but I'm stuck here in energy consulting, getting very little work even in that.
dunk, you can still want change for the people in Chad...
There's better things in the world to worry about.
I think you have a misconception of teenagers these days - not all of them want to fight the world. I'm pretty sure fuck all of them do. There's sex and drugs to be worrying about, fuck fighting the government. Why fight things we know we can't change, no matter how much you delusion yourself, we just can't. I'd rather use my energy to look after myself and my family, instead of trying to get world peace.

there have always been sex and drugs for teenagers to worry about, but some teenagers don't, so they think about fighting the government.
Thank you... finally somebody who seems to understand what I'm talking about. Good point... and, from a teachers point of view, do you have any means of teaching them what to do?
I agree with you about society... and I also think that the vast majority seem to be blind to a certain way of thinking. I probably shouldn't have brought up this topic since I have personal reasons for feeling how I do... and they're not the kind I'm EVER gona talk about on the internet.
I would love to be able to have a chat with the 7 year olds I work with and introduce ideas about who and what they want to do/be when they're older. I've tried to talk to them about it, but when I ask 'what do you want to be when you grow up' and get the response 'shop assistant in TK Max, just like my 17 yr old Auntie'...kinda brings me to a silence. I was a bit shocked!
And work ethics and attitudes really do come from parents, so it will be a vicious cycle. Therefore, although I feel it's part of my job to inspire them, it won't amount to anything because they look up to their Mum's...or Aunties.
I really do think, that in order to change our society, we need to go backwards. People are far to greedy these days, want things right here and now and aren't prepared to earn it. I think some of it comes from so called human rights and government hand outs. It might seem rigid to go back 50 years or so but at least people learn attitudes, values and ethics. I think the 60's ideals got a bit out of hand!
And maybe the greed we now have has caused us to forget to fight for things we care about in life.

I really don't think that many teenagers are thinking of fighting th government, they are more bothered about what crappy music to play really loudly on their mobile phones on public transport to try and piss as many people as possible off.

I agree completely... we have it ALL wrong. Capitalism is not the way to go. 'Stuff' just distracts us from the REAL issues. There is even a big difference in the things you mentioned: attitudes; values & ethics, from when I was a kid. It's just all wrong.

I know what ya mean... about still feeling like a teenager in some ways.

but when I ask 'what do you want to be when you grow up' and get the response 'shop assistant in TK Max, just like my 17 yr old Auntie'...kinda brings me to a silence. I was a bit shocked!
My daughter said she wanted to play harp in a restaurant and paint the skies. Where she got those ideas from, I don't know. Not sure her teacher was very impressed.
Joke apart, if what the kid sees is auntie at TK Max (17 years old, uneducated and maybe even pregnant) that's what this kid thinks is cool/normal/whatever. They do say education starts at home and if your home is full of couch potato slobs (wayne and waynette spring to mind!), what can one expect from the offspring?
My daughter is just a teenager. She wants to change the world, stop children going hungry/dying for nothing, etc. but she also looks after herself and her loved ones before anything else. She does have high aspirations for herself, but will that change as she becomes more of a teen? I don't know.
First sign of independence, they wanna rebel... it comes naturally... cos humans aren't meant to be caged. The poor fuckers don't realise that we (society) will do whatever it takes to brainwash them to our way of thinking and put them in their box... boot camp, military school, therapy, jail... whatever it takes! :mad:
We WILL make the poor fuckers conform to normality. Authority seems to be the only reality these days... and freedom only exists in our minds :( sad sad sad state of affairs.
god how i wish i could have my teen years back ......
I think teenage rebellion starts at adolescence, when you're going through puberty and mood swings as it is. Then it starts. Family, friends of family, every single family member, teachers, tell you what to do, how to act, what do you like, what don't you like, well why don't you know? And it happens, from 12-18, 6 years of people talking to you like you're too young or too old. Fuck, I don't need to wait until i'm 30 to really be able to understand some things. Sure, experience and age brings a lot, but I know at 19, hell i knew at 10 some things that people claim you need to be a parent to know. It's just years and years of 'you're too young to do this but you're old enough to get these responsibilities.' Rebellion comes from just not being able to fucking take it anymore.
Granted I feel i don't 'have' to be as rebellious as I once did, but it feels good to break those chains all the time, even if it's doing something small and stupid to 'fuck' with normal society like wear shorts in winter or a coat in summer. Anything to make people be like 'wow that kid is weird you're not *supposed* to do that.' Why are you *supposed* to do a lot of things? Some things are understandable, but why am I *supposed* to do some things? I'll do whatever it takes to set my self away from those people who think they are *supposed* to spend every minute at work, buy the biggest house, buy the biggest car, and die.
Sure some teens rebel for no reason, but not all of them.
dunk, you can still want change for the people in Chad...
c'mon..... if i'm not going to tip people in the worlds richest country then what chance has Chad got

I was just about to add to my little speech....
I've seen our future and it's shocking (although am I dealing with a representative sample?!) I think in 10 years time there will be a huge change, government will (seriously) realise the mistakes they've made and people will want to change for the better. The 'future' can't get much worse than what it's set to become.

"capitalism" isn't the issue...we'd still live in a capitalist society even if we all consumed far less...capitalism is a type of economic structure, it just means that markets are privatized rather than all provided by a central government as in socialism. What you are saying is that our obsession with CONSUMERISM is the problem. And this I agree with. People are bored, shopping is all they have to do. That energy that is put into shopping needs to be redirected.
My daughter is just a teenager. She wants to change the world, stop children going hungry/dying for nothing, etc. but she also looks after herself and her loved ones before anything else. She does have high aspirations for herself, but will that change as she becomes more of a teen? I don't know.
You have a responsibility to try and keep it in her though... I never saw much of that at home, wasn't encouraged much so it was kinda disheartening when I had ideas to just hear 'yip, that's nice'. You eventually give up.
Emma, you too are in one of the best positions... maybe not with 7 year olds but you can still inspire them in some ways!

I was just about to ask you where you teach? The schools I worked at (and the ones my daughter went to), the majority of the children were from a decent socio-economic class - various cultures and ethnic groups, but largely what the french would call 'bourgeois' families. That does make a difference in aspirations.
You have a responsibility to try and keep it in her though...
That's the responsibility of all parents and thus the background of the parents make a huge difference as to how the child behaves and perceives the world.
Granted I feel i don't 'have' to be as rebellious as I once did, but it feels good to break those chains all the time, even if it's doing something small and stupid to 'fuck' with normal society like wear shorts in winter or a coat in summer.

absolutely! I'll be making a pretty big change in my life this year and some people think I'm nuts and wondering why I want to give up 'everything I have here' and I think 'what is it I REALLY have here?' it's all material stuff! That's not what life's about.... well it's certainly not what my life is about and I refuse to be tied down by what other people think I should be about.

yeah but these kids are just little. once they get older, some of them will realize that being like auntie isn't what they want for themselves.

Despite my negativity on this thread, I actually agree with you. I believe the tide IS turning very very very slightly for the better... how long it's gonna take to come full circle, obviously I can't predict but I hope it doesn't have to get worse before it gets better... although I've a feeling it will.

my daughter is 6 and she wants to grow up to be a teacher... my youngest is 4 and she wants to be Sonic The Hedgehog... (she even wears wee white gloves all day cos thats what Sonic wears)
to be a shop assistant at TK Max when your aged 7 seems quite cool.. . if that was their job aspirations at aged 14 i'd be concerned... but at age 7 they think its like a scene from a Mary-Kate and Ashley film... girls trying on clothes and puttingon make-up.. at age 7 kids shouldnt be asked what they want to be when they grow up anyway.. why make them think about a fucking job... let them play for a while... the responsibilities come later.. we try and age our kids too soon these days...

my daughter is 6 and she wants to grow up to be a teacher... my youngest is 4 and she wants to be Sonic The Hedgehog... (she even wears wee white gloves all day cos thats what Sonic wears)
to be a shop assistant at TK Max when your aged 7 seems quite cool.. . if that was their job aspirations at aged 14 i'd be concerned... but at age 7 they think its like a scene from a Mary-Kate and Ashley film... girls trying on clothes and puttingon make-up.. at age 7 kids shouldnt be asked what they want to be when they grow up anyway.. why make them think about a fucking job... let them play for a while... the responsibilities come later.. we try and age our kids too soon these days...
