I'm old. I'm very painfully aware that other people often feel amazingly entitled to have some say in how I spend my life. I have spent a lot of decades arranging a life in which, no, not too many people have any say whatsoever.

It's possible that the youth of today are experiencing an unprecedented amount of (social) freedom that their cranky elders lack. If so, good for you.

It's also possible that you just haven't yet figured out that information is power, hell is other people and there are lots of crazies in the world who feel incredibly entitled to try to enforce some standard of behavior on you that you won't notice until you try to do something they don't like for some reason, no matter how innocuous.
