When was the last time you spoke with a high schooler

For context I am in my mid 20s. My youngest brother graduated highschool a few years ago. The only interaction I have with anyone this young is in passing, and usually at church where I know they have been sheltered (sometimes excessively). What I get from talking with even them is a deep sense of rage. Wholly founded, even if at times unable to be articulated, but nevertheless a sense of betrayal and longing for a future they may never see. I'm curious if anyone else has had similar interactions, or if anyone who is still captured by the school system, what they think of their peers. My sense is that things have not degenerated linearly, but rather this generation has reached an entirely new level of despair.

I don’t blame them. The boomer banking system borrowed from the future, which is now their present. Even if they just wanted a relationship and family, dating market is horrible now. Their food is largely poison. Public education seems to actively make people dumber. Most colleges are a joke now. They can’t buy homes. They’re not getting laid. They spend a lot of time on social media seeing everyone but them living it up. The men are told they’re evil and the girls are told the men are out to get them. There is nearly no new culture or advancement, just watching things from the 90s and before and their inferior remakes.

I completely get it.
