Youth- rebellion
Adults- moral power
Adults hate youth- they're jealous of freedom and no responsibility, their time of freedom has passed. Too scared to live the life they wanted society wasn't as accepting. Care free no stress they have a lot of responsibility, mid life crisis, walking out on families - second age of youth
Why are adults in love with youth- energetic, less informed so makes then feel smarter from more life experiences. Want to be younger and more beautiful
