[Andrea K.]

I’m a teacher and do musicals, and in both situations, I interact with plenty of kids who are not bad. I think one reason elderly people don’t have a good opinion of kids is that they never have much contact with them. When they do have contact with them, it is often in a situation in which the teenagers are being very rude and disrespectful, according to the rules by which the elders were brought up and by which they brought up their own children. For example, many young people seem, when at the movies, to forget they are not in their own living rooms. There is also the matter of dress; the punk, skinhead and Gothic looks can all be frightening to an older person. The grunge look often provokes amazement and wondering about why the kid’s mother couldn’t bring herself to hem those pants.
