It seems disingenuous to just tell the parents to raise their kids better when you have a systemic problem. Parents can only do so much.
Don't get me wrong I am all for not raising your kids the way you were raised. My parents were useless and insane respectively. And I was careful not to impart generational trauma as best I could, although I'm still pretty sure I ended up with a little bit passed over whether I liked it or not.
But we have solid studies it shows 70% of the middle class jobs in the last 40 years got taken by robots and automation and process improvement.
Those were mostly good paying factory jobs although it was plenty of other work in there. I remember when I first started doing more advanced IT support and developers support we needed six guys on a team and when I moved on to another job we had two.
That was because we switched from complex desktop software that depended on a lot of libraries to a web-based application that didn't need nearly as much support because it didn't have to constantly be rejiggered to work on a broken computer.
It's just one example but there's lots more and llms are going to devour workers. Every CEO is privately telling anyone who will listen, up to and including investors, that they will be replacing workers with AI. If course I press releases they deny that but I don't care what you tell the press I care what you tell you're investors because those guys are backed by the SEC.
