Is anybody disappointed with 60 Minutes' profile of "Millenials"?
It seems to me that it is the same old “it was better back in my day!” arguement. Isn’t every generation derided by the previous ones?
Opinions? Discussion items? Parfait?

I quit watching when the first segment was a repeat and not very old. Previews of Millenials acing out the previous generation did look like the same ole BS from one subset to another (older) subset. Looked like the Millenials may well be called the ‘ME’ generation!
I found it a little hard to believe in parts; especially the section where they claimed “millenials” have their parents call in to complain about their kids’ performance reviews at work. I also found the ending only perpetuated this ridiculous idea when the 2 so-called experts said they think mom and grandma would like to see some good marks from work.
However, I thought a lot of was true, especially the “you’re special” remarks. Kids getting trophies for just participating in sports is condescending.
