Heck I watched youtube when I was a young kid back in 2008. I used iPads in school in 2012. Late 90's babies:BuT i WaSn'T iN eLeMeNtRy ScHoOl bY tHeN" Umm but you were still in school and still growing up. Lmfao "growing up" is exactly what it says. You don't just stop growing when you hit 13. You're still a kid and you have very much in common with 11 year olds. You may be a teenager but you aren't old enough to work, drive and legally consent. By law you're more like 10 year olds than 16 year olds aside from puberty.

Khal, using an iPad at age 13 is wayyyyy different from using an iPad at age 5... There's 2 things 5 year olds and 13 year olds have in common. 1.) they're both kids. And 2.) they're in the process of growing up. Just because you reached puberty doesn't make a difference if you use an iPad when you're not an adult yet. You're growing up with tech throughout k-12.

Honestly people have their own opinions. To me there is no "worst" decade. Every decade has its ups and downs. The 2010s, 2000s, 1990s and so on had its ups and downs. I really dislike it when people say that the "2010s is the worst decade".

That's definitely true. I was a teenager for the majority of this decade and my teens generally weren't a great time for me personally. My first year of high school (2012) in particular was a low point. Not only did I struggle to adjust to high school, but my Nanna also passed away in October that year and just two weeks later, my Uncle was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. Other issues that I struggled with during my teens were having to wear braces, having bad acne, low self-esteem and my Dad's alcoholism. To add on from that, I also personally didn't like most of the trends of this decade either.

It may be someone's personal life, but that isn't always the case. Sometimes, it can be external factors such as the social, economic, and political atmosphere. Besides the hate towards the 2010s and other eras depends on the culture beyond one's entity. Someone, for instance, enjoys the music but may hate video games. Another person loves the cinema but may loathe politics. A third individual has a fondness with technology but might detest the economy. "growing up" is exactly what it says. You don't just stop growing when you hit 13. You're still a kid, and you have very much in common with 11-year-olds.

Actually, people are still growing up well past high school. It doesn't stop as soon as one hits adulthood. Maturity isn't just physical, it's also emotional, social, spiritual, occupational, financial, etc.

I've just personally noticed that people who like the 2010's more are usually more satisfied with what they have in their current life, though there can be other factors as well.

This is accurate. When I reminisce on the past, I tend to long for objects, events, and people who are no longer around. I try to find new things to engage my time with so I can deter myself from getting homesick over nostalgic thoughts.

Makes perfect sense to me, I don’t know that it’s such a big revelation. However, you can also feel nostalgic for the past when your personal life is fine but the whole rest of the world seems to have fallen apart. As in my case.

I didn't even grow up with mobile phones let alone smartphones! Very few people even had a landline.
