“The children love now luxury, they have bad manners, contempt for authority, they show disrespect for their elders and love chatting in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of the household. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, gobble up dainties’ at the table and tyrannize their teachers.” ~Socrates.
