Just curious so running a poll feel free to post you're feeling about this topic or to make a argument for one side or the other

I would say the 'gap' inbetween has grown wider. 

The standard of lazy has gotten lazier, and the standard of hard workers has raised as well.

We're just smart enough to use things to our advantage duh

Im more talking about the fact i see parents with kids age 18-25 still mowing the lawn doing basic chores around the house... I feel like kids are less likely to do those things now then they used to be

[Realist]

way too much of a vague question for a yes/no, you have to factor in technological advancements etc

 

are you talking about specifically getting up and finding a job with a corporation or?

My garden is artificial grass so no need to mow.

Its a clear yes/no ya its vague but its vague so to create a open discussion environment

Imho, not lazier.
Certainly more efficient.

I do however agree that in some families children (aged 16-24+) lack the incentive to help with household chores.

No, you only see laziness because it is well documented due to the internet; mainly social media.

i agree with the chores thing

[ayy lmao]

to be honest, people can give it other words but it is true that our generation is lazier. it does not necessarily mean its a bad thing because if you look into history, humans were used to a lot of manual physical work. but now that we have technology and everything is so easy we just are not used to getting out of the way and doing manual labour.
