Use of words and younger generation

MissAdventure

The term "Six Seven" literally has no meaning. It's a brain rot term created by the South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker to signify the disconnect between the elderly and the newest lingo. This term was early adopted by a younger generation as a method of trolling an other generation into thinking they're out of touch and are getting old.

"Six Seven" has no meaning, that's the joke. You trying to figure out what it means make YOU the punchline.

From the urban dictionary.

Yeah, I read that, too.

I find it depressing.

Youngsters and teenagers have always invented their own language to communicate distinct from that of their parents and grandparents which seems quite a natural thing to do.

But to deliberately set out to troll those generations? Hmm.

It's the youngsters and teenagers who appear to be suffering the most from mental health issues, too.

We shuld try replying to it with "Five Six, pick up sticks, seven eight, lay them straight", part of a much older commentary on the mental development of the young - much more obsessive and habit-bound than the elderly.

What does “all hell broke lose” mean? Was she yelling or just disagreeing?

You are confusing passive parenting with gentle/authoritative/sturdy parenting, but a lot of parents seem to confuse them too

How rude and ridiculous that young woman was! Spindrift
Sounds like she is the one with the confused attitude, not you.

What I hate is the use of the F word by all and sundry. I still cringe when I hear it not only on buses and the street but by young parents and on the radio.

It's the 'C' word for me - often used as the most pejorative term of all....

Gentle parenting does have rules, boundaries and consequences - although I prefer the term respectful parenting these days as most older people equate gentle with permissive.

I don’t think children are naughty, but their behaviour can be.

My parents were only children and were both quite fiery, my mum in particular.

Our so sons best friend and wife have to children who are brought with zero rules and regulations, if they decide they don’t want to go to school they don’t, if they don’t want to sit at a table and eat they don’t etc.

Our son still goes to stay with them as he is so close to his friend, our DIL refuses to go as she says the home is chaos and the children are ill mannered little ………!

I believe this is called Gentle Parenting in the current day.

When I was a kid, it was called Bad Parenting or Neglect.
