I am afraid I have to disagree with the statement above. In my opinion, this statement is general and obscure, and it ignores all the benefits the next generation can receive from us.

In the statement, it generally concludes the life of “us”, and makes assumptions of people’s life. But without stating any specific examples or detailed descriptions, the statement is not convincing in any way. The statement is similar to another frequently asked question “Are each generation performing worse and worse?” One generation consists of people that can be drastically different. People have independent opinions and lifestyles. By categorizing people in their generation, the statement already proves its incredibility in the first place.

Many people might agree with the statement because they only see the darker impacts one brings but ignored its greater benefits. Our generation is often known for our addiction to phones, bad influences from social media, increased suicide rates, etc. Countless articles criticize the impacts from technologies. However, by thinking positively, more goods can be discovered. The next generation will have access to more resources and possibilities. Despite social media’s bad influences, it is a way for people to express their thoughts freely and receive advices. And internet’s advances make people more acceptable toward different race and sexuality. Our next generation can now be born under a more diversified environment.

To sum it up, our lifestyle is not bringing negative impacts to the next generation. Although we are far from providing a comfortable, careless free environment for the children, I believe all the hard work we pay now are contributing toward a safer and better world.
