A recent survey conducted by 'Skuola.net' found that 84% of participating students agreed with the measures introduced by the Security Decree in Italy. This overwhelming majority suggests that the loud and rebellious image often associated with Generation Z is misleading, as the majority of students seem to support authority and security measures rather than oppose them. This indicates a significant shift in the perception of today's youth compared to their predecessors.

The findings also highlight a significant generational divide between the student population and their parents, most of whom belong to Generation X, who often view authority with suspicion. Many parents remain fixed on the protests from the past, such as the G8 summit in Genoa, seeing the Security Decree as an infringement on rights. In contrast, the current generation of students perceives these measures as protective rather than oppressive, leading to a disconnect in perspectives between generations.

This generational circuit-breaker challenges the long-standing narrative of youth rebellion, illustrating that a substantial portion of today's youth values stability and safety over protest. The results indicate that despite the loud voices of dissent within Generation Z, a quiet majority supports measures that reflect a more pragmatic approach to security and governance.
