Kids these days don't help women

Today I was at work and was lifting boxes, carrying water jugs and various other tasks. There was a time when a man would go out of his way and offer to help with these things.  So now to my point.   Seems to me the younger generation shows no sign of chivalry.  There was an intern at work who is about 21 years old and he saw me doing all these activities and not once did he ask to help me, he just kept playing on his phone.  I don't know if the kids are not being taught to help others and that men should open the door for a woman and help them whenever possible, or why they are so lazy and selfish these days. It's not just young men, it's the girls too. Most children these days are not willing to stop and help someone that is older than them.  The world is becoming one selfish pit.  I know some of the reason for these actions are because of how there is so much more crime out there than there used to be.  It is not as safe to stop and help someone broken down on the side of the road like you could 30 , 40 or 50 years ago.  If everyone today would help someone out instead of helping themselves, the world could smile a little more.  I feel that so many people today are so angry and bitter.  It makes you feel good when someone is polite and respectful towards you.  If I am in a kind of weird mood and I walk by someone that is speaks to me and is in a good mood it makes me feel better and happier. Not too many people are nice to everyone they pass these days, most just walk past you not acknowleding your existence.
