Socrates totally agrees.
The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.
Stupid kids.
Cross their legs?!

Also complaining about the beer that kids are drinking nowadays, back in his day beer was unfiltered, had MORE muddy sediment, now THAT was real beer, etcetera etcetera…
