. . . batshit crazy. Emotionally stunted. No coping skills. No ability to reason. Reflexively scared and angry. Perpetually frustrated. Addicted to their victimization fetishes. Always blaming someone else for anything less than ideal in their lives. Desperate for constant affirmation.

I have no idea what has caused this widespread problem. But I heard a brief radio segment this morning that maybe explains things, at least to some degree. Handing out cell phones to young girls still in grade school and junior high significantly increases the incidence of all kinds of emotional and behavioral problems. Multiple studies out there for many years documenting this reality.
