Based on what I've observed from young muffakas around me, it's way more stressful now than it was in the past.
Combine a bad economy with the normal fukkery kids deal with like fitting in, establishing their identity, planning out some-kind of future, school, peer pressure, social media, exploring their sexuality, whatever the f#ck is going on in their household (problems), questioning your beliefs, parental expectations, finding a job, dealing with everyday bullsh!t and possibly living in a fukked up community

it's some sh!t they still call adolescence
Its slightly more stressful now if you ain't up to the trends, but that crack era was no joke. Back then, you had to deal with that "acting white" shyt, you had to deal with the nicca that had mad $$$ from selling crazy drugs that were profitable while you had none
, the lost niccas that emulate the thugs, the random fights that niccas want to test you on for no reason, the stuck up girls that only wanted to be with one type of dude. Shyt was too hard back then.

these days, either you killing nikkas, punching bytches in they face or silting yo wrists vertically.

, so when I used 2 question their stories dudes would be on some sh!t like "aye
I swear to god on my life wtf I'm telling you is the truth". These dudes scandalous tales of the 80's are
that's why I'm proud that I was born in 86
. Wouldn't want to be a teenager in the 80's or 2010+ sh!t is
to me. Those twenty years between 1990 and 2010 got my head right for a "normal" life. I dodged a lot of fukkery too.
. Looking up on naked chicks on twitter, seeing hoes get nasty on WSHH, and watching movies on it? I wouldn't get shyt done.
