Can we please stop pretending that kids of any generation were largely capable of such? "Kids today" are kids. They are in development, just like all the rest of us were. The major difference between "kids today" and previous generations, is the sheer volume of outside influence today's kids have. My generation's influences were family, church (for those who went,) friends, school, radio, and about 50 - regulated - cable TV channels. This generation has all of that and an endless stream of random, unfiltered content. Of course they are harder to reach, but to imply that they are the first generation of kids who lack fully formed critical thinking skills, is disingenuous at best.
