There are a myriad of factors that influence this ineptitude:

#1. Way too much time on FACEBOOK;

#2. Computers that move so fast the brain of the young adult is incapable of concentration;

#3. Undisciplined browsing on the INTERNET;

#4. A hyper-convenient approach to information and therefore education;

#5. A proliferation in the number of so-called SMART PHONES which are DUMBING DOWN the population, doing the THINKING FOR THEM;

#6. Overly distracted by TRIVIAL NONSENSE with little or no KNOWLEDGE of HISTORY, GEOGRAPHY or COMMON SENSE ETIQUETTE;

#7. An over bearing parenting experience where as kids the young adult wasn't expected or permitted TO FAIL OR MAKE MISTAKES, thus sheltered from the REALITY OF LIFE!
