Like the "nobody wants to work anymore" phrase, there's a version of this post for pretty much every generation.
The constant variables are the age of the author and audience with whom it resonates, not the specific changes between the two time periods.
In 6-8 years or so we'll see a new version about TikTok and late night sessions with ChatGPT doing your homework as the good ol' days that have now been ruined by adulthood.
People coming of age with the harsh realities of life will lament their loss of childhood until humanity's final days.
Damn those last kids, they'll never know what we had to deal with!!
