The '''Teacup [[Generation]]''' typically refers to many of the children of [[Generation X]]ers. '''Teacup''' is a slang term for someone who is fragile or lacks [[resiliency]]. It generally is only a reference towards actions and attitude, and not physiology. Further the term China (a reference to Fine China dinnerware) is used to refer to those raised by teacups, and denotes a greater fragility and lack of resilience beyond teacup.

==Quotes==
The great [[conservative]] President of the United States [[Theodore Roosevelt]] remarked a century ago that our society was perfecting its "[[Teacup Generation|cult of nonvirility" with "untried men who lived at ease]]."

"Over-sentimentality, [[Teacup Generation|over-softness, in fact washiness and mushiness]] are the great dangers of this age and of this people. Unless we keep the barbarian virtue, gaining the civilized ones will be of little avail." — [[Theodore Roosevelt]]

==Causes==
* The [[self esteem]] movement
* The [[public school values|educational system]]
* Teacup parents (many [[Generation X]] [[liberal]]s)
* the [[Welfare state]]-[[Nanny state]]
* Lack of personal [[responsibility]]
* Lack of value of [[Libertarianism|liberty]] in people's personal lives.

Over the last 30 years the [[liberal]] [[lobbyist]]s such as the [[labor union]]s and especially the [[teachers' unions]] use [[tax]] payer [[citizen]] [[money]] to [[propaganda|promote]] [[socialist]] [[Common Core]] and other [[Professor values|public education]] [[indoctrination]] and [[public school values]] including [[gun control]] to help create a [[entitlement mentality]] [[tea cup generation]]. According to critics, teachers' unions such as the [[National Education Association]] (largest union is the USA) and the [[American Federation of Teachers]] are not so much professional organizations as they are [[liberal]] [[Nanny state]] [[lobbying]] groups, and they are most likely responsible for the removal of [[Conservative values]], God, and [[Christian values]] from [[Public school|public school]] classrooms. These unions require mandatory [[theft|paycheck deductions]] of $1000 per year or more that always get donated to liberal [[Democrat]] [[political campaign]]s.

Many teacups and their liberal Generation X parents tend to be strongly [[gun control|anti-gun]] while frequently playing with video game "guns". Starting with the massive [[television]] exposure of the [[Baby boomer]]s, the Internet - [[video game]] playing of [[Generation X]] and now the [[social media]] [[virtual reality|virtual]] world of the Teacup Generation [[Postmodernism|modern]] people have been [[dumb down|dumbed down]] more than any other [[generation]]. Television, [[reality TV]] and social media are examples of aspects of the [[media]] that dumbs down its audience. This over-exposure to media without actually going out and "living life" results in Teacup tendencies.

==Solutions==
# Recognize your personal responsibilities, and that no one is going to care about you or your [[family]] more than you do.
# Build up [[resiliency]] and [[independence]] in your life, to maintain or better the life you have, in good times and bad.
# Convince others to be more resilient and build [[Community | community]], its much harder to be pushed over when your standing together.
