I did not like Twenge's book Generation Me at all. She had good ideas throughout the book, but I think that most of the writing was not really her opinions. I believe that she uses way too many statistics and data from other people. She should have talked more about her own experience. I feel that she stereotypes a whole generation and I do not think that this fits most people. I think that I might write about Twenge's view on the parenting of generation Me. I would like to talk about that your views are shaped by multiply sources such as parenting, media, the peers one may have during school and other issues that helped shaped generation me. It is not just because were in this generation this is how we act, but why generation me acts the way it does. I would like to discover the elements that stand behind generation me. For instance, why this generation views sex the way it does or why children are so disrespectful now a days.
