Damned youth, lack of respect.
I grew up respecting adults with all my heart, my parents always said that gray hair and adults deserve respect, and that was the norm in everyone's life. We learned that disrespecting an adult was synonymous with severe punishment, very severe.
I had a family gathering the other day, and among the guests was a niece I love dearly, who always spent time with us, and I thought I deserved a bit of respect. But when we talked about not wanting to eat something she didn't like, I replied, "It seems like you've never gone hungry, kid. You don't know anything." And she attacked me with everything she had, telling me to shut up in front of everyone.
I chose not to prolong the drama, but not before giving her a look that could kill. Now that she's almost 15, she thinks she can trample all over everyone and tell them to shut up, regardless of their age. A deafening silence fell over the table after that unpleasant incident. I decided to do what I do best: keep quiet and disappear, not before making the others see how spoiled and rude she was.
Talking to friends about this, they told me their relatives around that age behave the same way. I replied, "What the heck happened? What did we do wrong with this generation? They're going to trample all over us and want everything right now without any sacrifice." I don't understand what's going on. I thought that if I had kids, the first thing I'd teach them is respect for adults, especially those who took care of them and wiped their butts when they were babies.
I hear kids say, "Mom, I'll send you to a nursing home when you're old." What kind of kid thinks that? You should be grateful for your existence. You're here because of your parents' efforts. Today, kids say, "I didn't ask to be born, so you have to put up with me and give me everything." You should at least show some gratitude and respect for the time and effort your parents have invested in you.
You ungrateful brat, respect your elders. Don't think that just because you're 15, you're independent and can disrespect everyone around you. Although you may not always agree, respect is basic. Damn you, go to hell. I'll make sure you remember this day for the rest of your life. I don't know who's losing more, you or me. At the end of the day, I'm just a shadow of hell, a poor devil who's ready to go to my grave, with a messed-up life and path. Meanwhile, you haven't even started yet. If you keep disrespecting everyone who doesn't agree with your stupid ideas, you won't make it far. I've said it, and I hope this serves as a reflection on what we're doing wrong as parents. Times may change, but we're paying the price for our lack of education and respect towards these brats.

With all due respect, perhaps you could examine your words to see where you perhaps showed disrespect.
Could this have been the start of the drama, and she, unconsciously reflected back the lack of respectbshown to her?
The only way to teach resoect is to show repect. Do unto others as we would have them do to us.

I agree with you but, i was sad because this not was my form but, in this case language was very unrespecfull, well yhis happens to me and i believe in the deep, her mom talk after the incidents and another person are agree with me, we hope our new generations do not kill us foster than the past.
"Her contempt for the food and the people who made it was unbelievable. The others felt the same way, and that's what sparked the drama that I got dragged into."
Happy night
"What the heck happened?" we near 30 years old and older asking that ourselves every day. While kids are like: "Everything's just simply perfectooo!" xD
Exactly we have the same problem with all children.
Values are increasingly being lost in society. "Before," if we responded badly to an adult, they would they just knocked our teeth out.
I like going to shopping malls. I've seen some very young children, even as young as 5, mistreat their parents, and the parents do NOTHING. That's where the problem lies.
I think you're right. A look like the one you describe is better .
I totally agree with what you do, in fact I would do the same, I would leave the place but not before saying what I think, if they DON'T like it it doesn't matter
