The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.

- Attributed to Socrates (469-399 BCE)


Reminds me of the CA who expected me to stand whenever he entered the flight deck...even when he was coming back from the lav! (I jest, of course.)
