possibly, but the op is also stereotyping; I have a 10 year old who's actually mature beyond her years and constantly surprises me with the depth of conversation we can have, albeit she does have her moments (she is a kid afterall, but I still think I'm usually more immature than she is, and I'm almost 4 times her age... *shudder*). She's definitely not the norm when it comes to kids, but I still know plenty of teens who'd be pretty insulted by being called a "wet- behind- the- ears teeny bopper without a lick of sense".
It just gets tiresome to continually see posters who try to justify their anger by putting down younger generations to make themselves look better rather than rationalizing why they are angry to begin with, which is usually justified in itself, as it is in this case.
