Born in the 70s, grew up in the 80, uni in 90s worked in a professional role since late 90s. When I started work people write you letters you wrote back, people didn’t expect a reply in less than a week, out form now has max 24 hour turn around. Expected to answer emails well beyond the working day, others answer emails on holiday. Cars everywhere, nothing in life is black and white anymore little seems to be right and wrong nowa days. People are much more self centred and life so pressurised. Everything is about spending money, what clothes you wear, your house/where you live, people are often very false, kindness is seen as weakness,no one seems satisfied unless kids are in 10 after school activities with tutors to push them beyond their natural abilities so they can get in the right school/set. Never have time to just stop. I often think how life will be when my DS grows up? Will it become unbearable or will people move away from the aesthetics to the quality of life again?
