The world was so much better fifty years ago, amirite?

The 1960's: When all we had to worry about was the real threat of total nuclear annihilation, legal racism/sexism, and the Vietnam war.

Yeah, but thanks to drugs, no one remembers any of that! Remember? Besides, you forgot The Beatles!

I think they mean it wasn't as expensive and such a problem or stress factor for teens.

Not really. I mean, I wasn't born 50-years-ago ;) just kidding... Though, I think today's world is amazing considering the technology. I love technology. I'm glad I wasn't born generations earlier.

I was thinking more about the attitude of the people. Children these days have no discipline. Just like parents paying thousands for their little princess to be in a music video. People are fake now.
