Pretty sure that both kids' characters in that movie were intentionally written to not be average of children that age at the time

Like most kids in movies.
Otherwise, no one would watch movies with kids.
Like most characters in movies, even.
You grew old, thats what happened.
Kids in the 2010s: We are standing up to demand an end to the pollution so that we can have a future
Meanwhile, their Grandmas in the 2010s: Kids these days are too woke, they never play outside. I hate that Greasy Thunberg or whatever she calls herself, so preachy. No-one walks anywhere any more it's so sad. This Facebook user I love posts AI pictures of kittens and says immigrants are eating our pets and universities are run by Muslim terrorists. I saw some kids outside the other day and was terrified so we're getting the city to close the park and get rid of the bus shelters. All music sounds the same these days like it's made in a factory, not like the real music we had - kids these days don't even know what Motown is.

You getting old is what happened.
You put unlimited slop devices in front of everyone 2 years and older instead of books.
Fuck it, I'll take all the "riz", "no cap", "frfr" bullshit over ANY of the other slang of the last thirty years or so. At least it makes sense.
Look man, if Grants book didn't have awesome dino illustrations, I'm calling this kids bluff. Even I had a dino book at that age (bit older than this...kid...man? This movies old) I still only looked at the pictures
This is 100% accurate. Those gigglemug youth before the 2020s were too pigeon-livered to be dimber-damber.
Yeah, nah. At least where I live, the 90s kid would be saying (in Portuguese) "Ô tio! Teu cu que vou pagar mico lendo aquela bagaça!". Or roughly "Hey boomer fr fr I'm not reading that skibidi, it's cringe shit".
All kids suck. Boo
Everyone under 25 should be killed. I hear you.
But thats just an arbitrary date
Everyone over 25 should also be killed so its fair. Only people that have been born exactly 25 years ago may be safe
It's called the interwebs I think
