But Donnellan said this is generally true of the broader population.<\/li>\n<li>The current generation is less fearful of social problems such as race relations, hunger, poverty and energy shortages.<\/li>\n<li>Today\u2019s youth have higher educational expectations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ultimately, Donnellan said, it&#8217;s common for older generations to paint youth in a negative light &#8212; as lazy and self-absorbed, for example &#8212; which can perpetuate stereotypes. It can be easy, he added, to forget what it&#8217;s like to grow up.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kids today are like they were 30 years ago &#8212; they&#8217;re trying to find their place in the world, they&#8217;re trying to carve out an identity, and it can be difficult,&#8221; Donnellan said. &#8220;But lots of research shows that the stereotypes of all groups are much more overdrawn than the reality.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For further information about this study, visit:\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2010\/03\/100315104030.htm\">https:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2010\/03\/100315104030.htm<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The full article is available for review at:\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/news.msu.edu\/media\/documents\/2010\/03\/d86dd7ab-adb0-4887-a043-96b559595fe2.pdf\">https:\/\/news.msu.edu\/media\/documents\/2010\/03\/d86dd7ab-adb0-4887-a043-96b559595fe2.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a scientific analysis of\u00a0approximately one-half million high-school seniors over three decades,\u00a0 Brent Donnellan and Kali Trzesniewski of the University of Western Ontario argue teens [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":35691,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[24,399,19,398],"tags":[369,368,136,370,371,247,317],"class_list":["post-260","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-psychology","category-dad-father","category-parenting","category-mom-mother","tag-dad","tag-dads","tag-family","tag-father","tag-fathering","tag-positive-parenting","tag-teens"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Rethinking \u2018\u2018Generation Me\u2019\u2019 - Child Development Institute<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Today\u2019s youth are more cynical and less trusting of institutions than previous generations.
