​Just curious: What advice would you give to kids growing up today?

[uncertain]

- Appreciate life and learn to be grateful with what you have.
I've seen on TV or the internet that today's kids at school have amazing lunch, but they hate it and waste the food. It disgusts me every time I hear of the wasting. It's okay if you don't like the food but it's not the same when you waste it.

- Show some respect for your teachers and appreciation for your parents.
Today's teachers are disrespected by kids and mistreated by employers/ government/ society, which is pretty sad. Teacher should be a dignified profession.

- Appreciate ordinary people around you and their effort and contribution to society and our lives, like your nanny, school janitors, school bus driver, etc.

There can be more but these are important from my point of view.

Don't do drugs, stay in school, make your own choices, treat others respect but stand up for yourself, kick ass and take names.
