By Rich Simon It seems astonishing that even just two or three decades ago, parents not only pretty much knew what was expected of them to turn their offspring into civilized adults, but they could actually count on society to back them up. Even more astounding, kids seemed to understand this, too. Even if they rebelled against, yelled about, or sullenly resented how “unfair” adults were, they seemed to acknowledge adult authority and realize that they would just have to wait until they turned 18 to get for themselves the keys to the kingdom of grown-up independence.

Thank you for sharing your insights. I consider myself (as an “80s baby”) part of this generation in which our parents as well as the academic culture largely encouraged us to speak up. In general, I think that my generation and kids growing up today feel entitled to not only have an opinion, but to express it (sometimes very loudly!). From my perspective, I think this may have to do with adults’ encouragement of this expression, but also the ample opportunities to foster this expression via technology. Kids and teens today certainly have plenty of ways in which to express their opinions and beliefs, not only in face-to-face situations, but online. A great example of this is Facebook, a place in which individuals can tell the world who they are, however they choose to do so, and have the opportunity to make announcements about themselves, their thoughts, their opinions, at any moment of any day—instantaneously.
Personally, I think that providing a space for children to have a voice and express their opinions is very important, and I completely agree that finding a balance (teaching kids when it’s appropriate to express certain kinds of opinions) is key.
Thank you again for your great comments.
