The author really hasn't said what's actually wrong. He's hating against something he's not even done us the courtesy of defining (in any kind of a substantive way). Once again, we've got a classic "kids these days are so lazy" post without any real content.

    "The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority;
    they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise.
    Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer
    rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before
    company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize
    their teachers."

    -- Socrates
