I think the kids growing up today are products of the environment they were born into, and some of the "poor behavior" reflected on them is little more than self-fulfilling prophecies.
That's the thing, as a whole, I believe the generations have been getting worse. My generation has MUCH more fuck ups than my parents, and the newest set of kids is WAY WAY worse. I can't believe how many of the teenagers don't have jobs, and don't care to have jobs. It's insane.

My parents gen - 75% went out and got jobs and worked
my gen - seems to be 50/50 on work ethics.
the now teenagers - seems to be 75/25. 25% of them want to work.

Honestly, it's insane. I know, I have a 16yr old brother in law that has never had a job, and has a work ethic for shit and is useless as shit when you want his help working on something. But he can tell you he has 480 (or some stupid #) of friends on facebook, that he posts and tracks on his droid or blackberry or whatever he has.
