I now under why the youth on this site are annoyed with the so call older and wiser generation. When the see, youth is wasted on the young.
What sort of message is that to the younger members of the group. A lot of the problems with the youth is caused by society.
The constant bombardment of ads and must have adverts just so a few can earn vast amounts of money. Lots of adults do not see this either.
Kid are encouraged to sit in their rooms for hour after hour playing computer games. Lots of these games are just full of violence, which over time desensitises them to violence it is just a game to them.
How many parents sit toddles in front of the tv for a bit of quiet time or buy the older children computer games. Then complain about them spending all their time in their room.
Parents giving mobile phones to younger and younger children. The art of communication is lost to text messages.
I would not say the youth is wasted on the youth, more that they have been programmed to behave like this. Would like to see some of your comments.

Oh dear, that minus score tells me I've offended - sorry about that, genuinely not my intention! I just thought the song has a nice balance in it of 'each 'side' needs to laugh at itself a bit' - at the end of the day we *are* each other. Nobody got cheated of a youth and nobody gets out of this thing alive.
I think that true 'I have it all sussed' wisdom is ever-elusive anyway. As Bob Dylan wrote, 'Ah but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now.'
Aww cheers, Number! :-)

Well, you get a +1 from me for manifesting an excellent quote that helpfully puts some real perspective on the 'age' rumblings here in recent times.
Fair point!
It might be cos it's a link with no context!
