      You are not mediocre if you are expressing your gifts(i.e. doing what you were meant to be doing. You can even do this as a hobby.). Unfortunately(maybe, but it was meant to be), I didn't find out my gifts until close to 60. In addition, I think I had to get a certain gift that was age dependent, before I could express my gifts fully. Once you do this, you will be way ahead of almost everyone, as they will still be flailing around-in a way, looking for their gifts.

    As a millennial who has worked very hard for what he has, and knows quite a few other millennials who have done the same (oh, we've also fought the longest war in American history- and yes, I was a part of that), I get really tired of being told I haven't earned anything, much less respect.

      I didn't learn about the word millennial until I was in my 30s already. I didn't think of myself belonging to a particular generation, more than anything else, I saw myself as an ADULT. It also took me some time to understand that the word was frequently used pejoratively. Huh, I thought, what's so bad about being born in 1981 instead of, say, 1974, like my older sister. I think the only sensible way to deal with the issue is not to give a damn. There's no use denying you are a millennial if you were born in that cursed bracket in contemporary history, but if people think being born a millennial defines who you are, then this person has a problem, not you.

    I’m sorry. I know I’m so late to the game on this one! But I just found this channel and I’m hooked! I had a career for over 30 years at the same (veterinary) hospital. I was pushed out by employers who caved to millennials. It was disgusting. Hard work and dedication and LOYALTY meant nothing anymore. It became one giant clique and if you didn’t follow the leader you were “difficult to work with”. We were literally required to “give roses” out to people who did a good job. Whoever got the most roses won a prize. It was nothing but a popularity contest. Going out of my way on a regular basis for my clients was ignored because I always did those things. But someone else would get recognized for sweeping properly! When a coworker who had been there literally one tenth of the time I had been there was upset with me and I wanted to know why I was told we can’t get into it because she feels uncomfortable and it’s not fair. UGH!!!! Thanks for letting me vent! I LOVE THIS CHANNEL. You hit the nail on the head my friend!

      If someone has a gluten allergy then maybe that's understandable, medical condition and all. But the amount of self preferential demands is stupid and pointless.
      It's like: "Seriously, you want us to bow before your every demand, but don't want to bow to other's demands. Yet the only ones giving demands are you.

    Has JP done a video about parents who can not parent? For instance one guy I was speaking to said he was upset the public school system didn't teach kids more morals. I said that was weird, because last I checked that was the parents job. Then he said something to the effect that he and his wife don't have time for that, because they are working. Which I replied,"Why are you having kids if you don't want to raise them?" -Sounds of silence followed.
    OR I had a parent see me as I am treating her 9 year old child. I asked if the child was being compliant with said assignments. The parent said,"I can not make my child do what she needs to do. YOU, need to tell her what she needs to do; you are the professional."
    My jaw just about hit the floor... why have parents abandoned the act of parenting? They don't want to do any raising or guidance... they want random people who flitter through their lives to make the largest impression on their child. I can't stand it.

      It's easier.

Do you think it could partially be because most parents are more focused on providing material goods through working extra hours weekly rather than taking time to actually raise their children?

      Parents don't have control over their kids 99% of the time. You can see that with bullying, where even the best parents couldn't intervene on time or school didn't take them seriously. Resulting in suicides, conflicting personality, mass shooting,etc.

      Some parents do exactly what you want them to do like not allowing them sex education, sending them to conversion therapy and others.

      Also we millenials take social media comments very seriously everything other people say is 100% shit and they dont know what they're talking about we will help them out and present them with real facts based on my personal opinion , so they dont make a mistake of thinking they have freedom of thought, or that they matter in any way.

    Lol. I'm a 27 yr old millennial and I'm pissed, because I never actually got all these gold medals for participating. Wtf. Never got a medal in girl scouts, track, Model UN, or science fairs. I only won medals in judo when I placed in the top 3 at competitions. Where are my participation medals??! This world did me soooo wrong. Also, if I had any friends I'd totes like their online personas better.

      Blame your parents. They have probably saved for psychotherapy if they are Xers. Unless, of course, you used that savings on your MA in Lesbian Dance Theory...

      The gold medal thing looks like a myth to me. I may be a millenial but I don't know friends who were regularly given gold medals for participating... u_u

    I'm not quite a millennial but a lot of this sounds like me. I've painfully come to realise that I can't do what I want with this weak mentality so I've been gradually toughening myself up!

    i love millennials! some of em are my kids. i am fine with kids living with parents. that's why people need a very large house. reverting back to ancient times when families ACTUALLY STUCK TOGETHER AND LIVED UNDER ONE ROOF.

      This is true. In recent years, I have been on a genealogy jag. I have looked at the census records of past generations on my mother's side in Canada. It was rare for a household to have four or fewer residents. The norm was for elderly mothers, grown children with their spouses, or grown siblings of the main couple to be residing in the home, into their late 20s or 30s.

    I’m a millennial and I’m glad to say most of the stuff you said doesn’t match my description. All I need to work on is listen more to people and learn to accept criticism. Hard for me to admit that but there’s a famous quote that I love to use; “It’s time to leave the nest”

      Marie Benard because Facebook is used for social connection moreso than real life now. Also, it's documented if they are an assist. Delete post or message only does so much once one person has a screenshot of the original.

      Besides that he points out many modern behaviours with flaws of society in general, all that generation "come up with any stupid name you want" bullshit just tries to shoehorn certain common aspects of modern daily life into specific groups of people.
