But calling this "the softest generation of All Time" (emphasis on your capitals, not mine) because they've never experienced generational hardships to your standards seems a bit overboard and a tired argument that's overused. How do you even quantify "the softest generation of All Time"? As I tell my kids "you don't know what someone else is going through, have some empathy".

Asking sincerely, I have an open mind
