Is today's youth different from previous generation?


Have you ever overheard a part of old ladies conversation concerning the behavior of young people? I suppose you had.
It’s obviously an issue to consider for almost everybody. Observing the behavior of youth in public transport  I noticed that it’s not very popular to offer a sitting place to an older person, when it’s taken by a young one. Certainly there are exceptions, but people in middle age are more likely to stand up and share the chair. It’s promising when young person gives up their place to an old one, but it doesn't happen often enough. We see that majority of youth, who are self-centered and self-confident are in contrast to some, who are brought up in a way, which guarantees being a caring people person.
On the other hand there is quite many young people who would like to carry help to others.  They  take part in many volunteer’s projects and taking duties like visiting and looking after old lonely people, gathering goods and money for shelters, hospices and orphans houses. They are sensitive, helpful and caring, but most of them need constant encouragement.
In summary I need to say that it is certainly true, that today, like in previous generations, youth can be caring on the one side and can be selfish and self-centered on the other one. In my point of view the difference is proportion. According to my observation I mean that there is a huge majority of young people who are confident and centered on themselves and their needs. The helpful teenagers and young adults are in the minority today, but I believe that this depends on bringing up process and it has to change in the future.
