how on earth could it be any more obvious that if you fear your own young, you have completely fucked up individually and structurally as a people/project?

like, i'm not pretending all the young are enlightened indigo empathy wizards or that there aren't traumatized / indoctrinated youth out there that wouldn't do me and put me in a dumpster for $20, but that's also an indictment of our society as much as anything else too.

but to fear the judgement and hostility of the young from friends and family that make up the community of your cherished institutions is some real "are we the baddies" type shit.
