At the same time, we shouldn’t romanticize struggle. Previous generations had to deal with a lot of unnecessary hardship. If technology removes some of that, it can improve quality of life. The key question is whether we are replacing meaningful challenges with comfort or eliminating pointless ones.
That’s fair, but I still think we are losing resilience. Even things like waiting, problem-solving, or dealing with boredom have become rare experiences. Those small challenges used to build patience and mental toughness over time.
