Topic	Do you think kids today are less intelligent than previous generations?

As technology and generations change, how we gauge "intelligence" changes as well. Someone in Middle America would say a Ivy League Scholar isn't intelligent because they wouldn't be able to keep a farm or a ranch operational. Even things like "general knowledge" can't be measured properly because that also varies by demographic and location. You know what? That's a fair point. There are different types of intelligence. Kids might be dumb by the old ways of intelligence, but they'll probably be smart in new ways. --- http://i.imgur.com/vDci4hD.gif <cite>Ivynn posted [p:972844093] in Do you thi...
