There is enormous contentness and complacency in American life for young people. We're becoming the people on that spaceship in WALL-E --- I look around and 90% of people are glued to a screen, whether its a laptop, a desktop computer, a tablet, a smartphone.
Personally, I'm bored as hell. I've spent most of my time on the Internet since 1999. I'm getting tired of it. And yet as I say this, I'm on the Internet. You just can't pull yourself away. You go outside for a walk and then about 10 minutes in, you have to go back online.
The youngest kids all have their tablets and a lot of the boys have their video games where they can fight in wars and express any anger they might have by blowing things up. That's it. They're satisfied. Don't bother them.
