Answer:

One century ago, Western fundamental laws were much easier to enforce and US national security was not much of a concern. With the introduction of advanced technology becoming widely available to the average person as well as it being used by a wide majority of people, they experience less freedom. Misinformation is rampant and it's nearly impossible to tell what is true and what isn't. A century ago the United States was an isolationist country and we were resistant to foreign intervention, but now that the United States seeks a globalist stance we are a prime target of it, and a reliance on technology makes it ridiculously easy for foreign agents to make you believe whatever they wish.

Living in a global society means many things, children grow up faster and with new technology coming out every year it seems like even kids 10 years apart are immensely different. People have different opinions on if that is a bad thing or a good thing on one hand kids are introduced to inappropriate behavior sooner then past generations were , there’s no way to prove someone’s age on the internet and when we have sites with age requirements what’s to say people don’t just lie. Children are 14 looking 25 because they grew up with makeup tutorials and clothing trends. Due the living in the modern world there’s is no “preteen phase”.

I think it is both an advantage and a dis vantage, kids grow up faster and become independent sooner but at what cost? They become exposed to beauty trends and fake body’s, most kids these days have self esteem issues or some type of mental health problem. At least 100 years ago kids would be kids not kids acting like adults or adults acting like kids.
