Millennials Child Abuse

both

my dad used to beat the shit out of my brother and I if we ever did anything wrong and caught him in a bad mood.

I used to have to run to the bathroom and lock the door and brace myself up against the door with my feet bracing against the bathtub or he would be able to break the door down.

In high school he elbowed my brother in the face and broke his nose.

My mom is the epitome of a boomer, and I've only come to the realization of how much she has royally fucked my head up.

I've had anxiety, depression, and the feeling like I can't catch my breath for as long as I can remember.

I feel like making it in crypto is the universes way of trying to make things right.

No. Millenials are simply one of the first generations to be exposed to social media from an early age. They didn't have "toxic parents". They gave themselves irreparable brain damage.

Boomer to millennial is too big of an age gap.

It's more like boomer parents emotionally abused their children (Generation X) and turned them into narcissists/sociopaths, then those parents took it out on their children (Generation Y/Millennial) by emotionally abusing them.

[Anonymous No.8939675]

>>8939384

No, it's a pretty safe bet saying we had the least abusive parents in human history by almost any measure. Not that the boomers are peaches, but chances are pretty good whatever problems you have with them now would have been magnified significantly before WW2.

>t. Boomer

I actually agree though.....for a different set of reasons.

I don't think my parents are "toxic" per se. They were just incredibly spolied and can't understand that the world changed. At 25, my Father had nearly finished paying off the house after a 5 year mortgage as a curtain salesman on 45k per year, and a stay at home wife. No budget either - just that everything was so cheap it's retard difficulty mode.

Today, with a University degree I got VERY lucky to get a 45k entry level position in software (many I know are working McJobs in my city, not even brainlets just unlucky really) after a few hundred applications. Not a hope in hell of paying off a house & massive debt, on a vastly tougher and more stressful job - and I'm lucky because I can hopefully get 6 figures in just a year or so.....and still have less spending power than he did in the 80s.

So they're confused why I'm broke all the time and tettering on being a NEET constantly. The house they paid off in 5 years on a shit job has done like a x50 - yet they think I should be able to get one with pocket change.

Basically we're fucked. And they fucked us. But it's honestly not malicious, just incredibly thoughtless. Then they wonder why I trade memecoins.....without a fucking hail mary win from something like that I'm just a destitute peasant forever.

Millennials are fucked up because of the opposite. It's because boomers didn't discipline them and neglected raising their child. You wouldn't have SJWs and faggots running around demanding all the ridiculous things if their parents were there for them.

[Anonymous No.8939753]

Schools ruined kids.
Everyone got a trophy while teachers scaled back the discipline and content knowledge you were expected to learn.

[Anonymous No.8939764]

i can agree that education that millennials get does not really prepare them for the world and only for college which still doesnt prepare them for the world.

basically we were taught what works in a capitalist society while our world is shifting towards a post capitalist society. we are too focused on preparing for college when most of the areas are not profitable except civil engineering, medicine and other hard sciences.

too much focus on sports and one street mentality.

Mayhaps, but from what I've heard about boomer grievances with their parents it sounds like we'd be bitching about how they raised us no matter what 2bh.

Look up the Adverse Childhood Experience Survey. Feminist have fucked it up, because the original survey was witnessing domestic violence when young but they changed it to violence against the mother.

Everything in the image is roughly equal.
If you were raised by a single parent that is equal to being raped as an child. Gives a whole new meant to divorce rape.

And the sad thing is we knew for a long time that bastards were different, and they didn't turn out as well. But now our society is filled with literal bastards and it is (((Feminist))).

Remember, no sluts and no fat chicks.

>>8939384
Speaking as a millennial, I've realised our problem after watching a speech by a public speaker.

We were introduced to social media and the internet at an early age. Having everything we need socially in our pocket has fucked us up. We're addicted because it offers us dopamine
Get a text? Dopamine hit
Get a like? Dopamine hit
That's why when we're feeling down we text our friends or put a picture up in Instagram and a text back or a like makes us happy.
We're too addicted to social media and our phones and that's why we have so much difficulty focusing on the outside world. We're not social during meetings. We're not social at dinners or lunches, were all on our phones

I've begun using my phone less and less and trying to strive to learn the things I love and I'm passionate about and actually study and do my fucking assignments and listen properly in my lectures.
Other millennials need to recognise the phone addiction so they actually do stuff without needing a phone by their side and actually socialise

Welcome to the Boomatrix, Neo. What is the Boomatrix? It is a network of electrical signals, of social media, of identity politics, relationship and personal issues beamed directly into your brain 24/7 to keep you docile and turn you into this (pic). They do so to harvest your taxes for their retirement.

Humans are not born free anymore, Neo. From the moment they take their first breath they have a smartphone and tablet shoved in their hands and are jacked into the Boomatrix.

As someone who reached adolescence before smart phones but experienced the addictive nature of computers, I agree.

Everything is very boring without your phone.

[Anonymous No.8940140]

>>8939876
On top of this, millennials also have a reward complex.
There are now participation medals so that kids get a reward even if they lose. It removes the want to succeed and try harder, so when they're older they look at a tough obstacle and either give up immediately or put little effort in and they don't see an immediate result so they give up.
This is why so few are striving to own businesses or make a change in the world or be wealthy, because those goals take time and have challenges before you can reach the end goal, so they think it's to hard and give up.

Imagine when you were a baby, and you tried to walk. You fell down but you got up again, and eventually, after falling down lots, you successfully learned how to walk. When millennials are older, they fall but don't try to get up, because they're use to instant satisfaction and because they just keep falling, they give up on their goals.

They need to recognise it takes time and effort to reach even small goals and that eventually they'll be use to it.

I was discussing from a middle class perspective.
Wealthy families tend to be more narcissistic and teach their kids that they need to be independent and self-supportive so they can earn a place in life.
Though I may be looking at this stupidly.

Also, the other guy is on the right path, millennials struggle to think of conversation starters or a topic or really anything productive in a conversation so they get bored and go back to their phones because they're uninterested.

This. We inherited a different world from our parents. Children born in the 80s and 90s lived through an adolescence that became changed by technology in the blink of an eye.

The world we were born into is now completely gone - I was born before most people owned a computer or had even heard of the internet. When I was a kid in the 90s, we still rode bikes over people's houses to hang out and called our friends on their house phones. Now, internet is ubiquitous and every man, woman, and child owns a smart phone and PC/laptop. We live and work over the internet now. Children barely go outside anymore.

The old strategies taught to us by our parents and society no longer apply to us. Yes, some parents are terribly abusive to their children (physically, emotionally, and mentally), but the real change has happened to society. Technology changes people.

Was born in 2000. I think it may depend on your geographic location. I was born in a more rural part in Australia but still next to the city. I went outside and played with friends and rode our bikes and went to the park and called each other on home phones way more than we played consoles or talked on Facebook (didn't even have Facebook until I was 14) all the way until I turned 12. Now the impact of technology has stripped everything like that away and it's saddening

I am genuinely surprised kids as late as 2010 were still chilling outside with one another. Congrats though, that social contact with other kids during your pre-pubescent years will do you wonders later in life. So many social queues become ingrained to us during our formative years. I highly suspect the lack of early social contact in kids these days is why so many people have horrible social anxiety and can't stand the idea of someone not liking them.

This reminds me of how I called out on this bullshit in elementary school:

"You don't have to be special to be special"
"Everyone is special"

I pointed out that if everyone is special, then we'd all be the same. And does being special mean I'm like one of the "special ed kids"? Needless to say, I got into serious trouble when pointing that crap out.

Lol yes it fucking does. Having people that are more agreeable inevitably leads to employers fucking employees over.

Again, this idea that there is some epidmic of cuddling and coddling is so far from my experience and everyone I know that I have to imagine it's just anger that different styles of parenting exist. Honestly this might be controversial but I think parenting is actually a very small part of how people develop; socializing in school and at home with other children and access to information shape an individual far more, and that is at least the vibe I get from a majority of millenials

>>8940988

Oh that wasn't in reference to the liberalization of parenting. I do believe you can be nurturing and show a lot of affection for your children and still raise someone who can stand on their own two feet and be a balanced individual.

My comment was simply in opposition to your statement that empathetic/agreeable behavioral traits has nothing to do with employees fucking people over. I mean, they don't actively fuck women over, they just don't provide concessions, thus you see women fall behind because they don't self advocate NEARLY as much as men in positions where salaries can be negotiated, and you see the same in men with high agreeableness. Overall, people high in empathetic behavior in general will earn less than others in the same positions.

Absolutely, but at the same time intelligence enables us to be cruel when we have to be. Millennials and the people who raised them are detached from the harshness of nature.

No, I put in work, pay my own way and understand my situation. It's just not easy to build the 'get it' mindset when you're raised spoiled.
The most driven people I know, from any generation, had shitty childhoods that made them resolve to be succesful as adults. One example: my good friend from highschool had an abusive alcoholic stepfather. He got beat with 2x4s and belts for a few years, was told that he was retarded and worthless on a daily basis. He now runs his own IT consulting company and makes ~300k a year on top of building equity in the company. He always tells me that his biggest motivation to succeed is so that he doesn't have to be poor and fucked over like he was as a kid. The 'hard times > strong men, easy times > weak men' phrase isn't just a meme.

I was born in the early eighties and was raised in that toxic environment for a long time. It fucked me over royaly and I'm still dealing with the fallout but I woke up years ago and I have a head start over the poor saps that came after me.

This is an interesting post, particularly when taken with III.1 here >>8939404. Notice the way he seems to equate millenials with "kids these days" so to speak. Of course all millenials are adults now, and depending where you draw the boundary with gen z, have been for some time. The bulk of them were already teenagers when the earliest proto-social media like MySpace and LiveJournal came out.

You're a fucking idiot mate. Which generation has the most liberals? Which spearheaded the movement of the retarded LGBTQ+ bullshit? Which generation cries over pronouns and safespaces? Which generation cries over "gay rights" but then turn 180 degrees around and champion Islam while denouncing Christianity? It wasn't the boomers, it wasn't the generations before them, hell it sure wasn't the people in the enlightenment era. This is purely a millennial "problem" since it's this generation that gave birth to the SJW retardation. SJW'ism is so pervasive that it has seeped through into every facet of our society. Face it, millennials are to blame for this. Many millennials (especially in first world nations) were spoiled and undisciplined by their parents that they grew up not knowing that every action has consequences or that you can't be a winner all the time. Think, faggot. This bullshit of using correct pronouns and being gay was seen as "cool" was literally unheard of in the previous generations

Yes, but it's also yourself partly. Don't blame everything on your parents, even though boomers did fuck up a lot and have no idea how harder AND also eaiser the world is, if you are guided well.

If you had bad parents = mental health problems, difficulty to focus, depression etc.. Can't really function and compete so well with others, unless you suck it up for few years and become a complete animal and alpha who started from the bottom

If parents guided you well and aren't divorced, had their shit together and planned life out for you = incredible emotional support and understanding, can focus on anything for hours, can rely on your parents as friends and someone to trust your problema with and talk to and get their support back

tl:dr life is unfair, suck irlt up if you are on the worse side

That's the thing though, narcissistic parenting strategies undermine a child's sense of self and ability to think independently, leading to failure later in life. A child in such situation would unironically be better off having no parental intervention in such a situation, it's that toxic. Sorry you never had parental support in your life, it's bad in its own way. Parents need to provide material support, but overbearing helicopter parenting is super destructive.

Possibly. I love my parents but they’ve made me so uncofident with no self esteem. I would get great grades and they’d never congratulate me just so it could have been better. I can tell my mum was one of those popular girls in school as well and she always used to say I’m looking scraggly, rough and thin faced. I legit can’t remember a time she called me handsome. I mean even ugly kids get called handsome by their parents and it didn’t happen to me once. I remember one time she said who would wanna get married to someone who had big ears, a narrow face and shaggy hair. She said it was a joke quickly after she realised it upset me a bit. Now I’m early 20s with no confidence in anything I do. Had a girl interested in me in high school and didn’t do anything about it because I was a nervous wreck.

I even have 6 figures in crypto and haven’t even graduated yet and she just says it’s an ok amount. Idk what to do anymore desu.

Sorry for paragraph, just needed to vent.

I'm similar. My parents expressed "love" but I also grew up very unconfident, shy, and depressed.

I actually didn't lose my virginity until I was 23 because I was so depressed and not confident.
If you want to get good with girls, you gotta just buckle down and start educating yourself. Read or youtube about Inner game. Watch coach corey wayne videos. Don't learn about pick up lines and that bullshit. Just learn about what makes females operate. I feel like I got a decent handle on that and it makes "a LOT more sense" now

For me I realize now at 29 years old, my dad contributed a lot to how I feel. He has anger issues so he is always angry. He always judged what I said and had to share his stupid opinion because he thought he is right (he is foreign and I am first generation born in US). Even though truthfully, he doesn't know shit.

He wasn't emotionally "open". He always makes mean jabs and makes me feel like shit. Just deep down, he has mental issues but completely fails to acknowledge it and brings everyone else around him down.

I'm trying to figure it out because at 29 even though on paper I have accomplished a lot (gotten music tracks signed. got music on network TV shows. released apps on app store. ) I'm still a failure in the eyes of my father. And HE is a failure himself (my stepmom basically works all day and pays for all the bills and he treats her like shit).

Anyways, I'm venting too but the girl thing I figured out so I just wanted to share that you can overcome that for sure. In terms of feeling shitty because not getting emotional support from parents, that I don't know how to fix.

I've thought about going no contact on parents because they make me feel like a failure and I feel like I could just be confident even if I worked in a call center or something. But I guess that might be "fucked up". So I don't know either. Good luck man.

Boomers lived in a nation that was 95% White, where the man was king, where good high paying jobs where everywhere and things like cars and houses were cheap. They looked around and saw this idyllic world and said "let's fuck shit up for our children and grandchildren!!!". I'd kill to have lived my life in their shoes.
