Children With Gray Hair

Sometimes when I look around I don't see maturity as much as I see children with gray hair. Whether it be an old couple who hasn't figured out how to get along or a politician's rant... it all screams "I haven't figured out how to approach a situation rationally and can't take responsibility for my actions".

I'm also guilty of this however being able to identify it in others helped me to better understand it in myself. Are others also able to make these connections within themselves? From my inquiries I found that most people, that do have internal lives, talk negatively to themselves.

It's unclear to me if the issue has gotten worse over time or if I just started noticing it more... If someone isn't aware of their own problems then how can we help them?
