I wrote this because, as a child of the new generation, I feel crushing expectations and double standards placed on me. While the economy continues to fall, I am expected to continue to live a normal home life like my parents, without debt and all the basic comforts that come with a home. But looking around, teenagers continue to drop out, or they can't find jobs, and then the parents say it's their own fault. Well I disagree. As you can see within the poem, I believe it is the votes and wars of our parents that have put us in this position. I hope this can put some light in peoples eyes, or at least get them wondering what the causes of today's problems are, instead of blaming the youth and expecting them to fix it.
