Kids Are Getting a Bad Reputation and it's Not Justified

I'm still #newhere because I wanted a place to make a #blog that doesn't make me make an account, pay for it, or have ads to pay for it. So here's my first blog entry.

All you see on TV #news or on the internet about #kids is about how stupid kids are, how confused about everything from #science, especially #biology, to #history and human interaction. Maybe in big cities where #education is all corrupted by politics that might be true. But I don't think you can write off a whole generation because kids in the news don't know which bathroom to use and can't tell you anything about the history of their own country and culture. We're not all like that! In fact I think the majority of kids, the ones you never hear about, aren't so ignorant and confused as people think.

I wonder if that is true about a lot of things. Watching the news it all looks bad! But people find ways to make life work and get through life without all that drama and without wars and protests and things that just make noise and hide the real truth behind one crisis after another.

#Adults reading this should know that probably most kids aren't all mixed up about their identity or their gender. The only thing really in doubt is our future, because the world we are about to inherit is a big battleground where the powerful compete for more power and who use confusion and mayhem to accomplish it.
