As grace stated, most people know when they just need to walk away from something, and do something else for a while. 

It's like people have no coping mechanism.   They have to be told how to handle things.   It really is more than a little unsettling to be honest.

I think it could have something to do with growing up and interacting on a damn cell phone!  These young people have no social skills, so they don't know how to handle themselves in emotional situations.
Well my friends I truly believe this culture of No One Loses and everyone wins and gets a Trophy has a lot to do with the kids not being able to cope with life.

Quote:I’m a millennial. Not the young, Instagram-everything, use-Gofundme-to-pay-for-your-vacation kind. I’m the oldest possible millennial, the kind that listened to Hanson and learned to use a card catalog and died of dysentery on the Oregon Trail. There are a lot of criticisms against my generation, but one of the most persistent is that we’ve created an “everybody gets a trophy” culture that prioritizes self-esteem over all else.

The arguments against this culture are loud and varied. Trophy Communism: If everyone gets a trophy, why bother even trying to win? The John Wayne: We’re raising a generation of sissies who will never figure out that life is tough! The Freud: You’re just trying to keep them babies forever and never let them grow up and experience anything difficult. The Trump: Everybody’s too politically correct to deny the losers a trophy. You’re LOSERS, kids, LOSERS!


The attacks on what I’ll call Universal Trophyism are so virulent, I’m afraid to whisper my next words to the Internet:

I think everybody should get a trophy.

They are Losers, Losers in Life and it's Down-Falls and the Disappointments That Life Will Throw At YOU!
They don't understand, Not Everything is going to go their way and Not Everyone Thinks Like Them!
Once A Rogue, Always A Rogue!
