i was shocked when i first heard it but when it was reversed it made a lot more sense and what stuck out the most is when she said her kids werent important to her.

My first reaction was shock because she started off with saying that the most important thing is work which I have never heard anyone say before. The statement that stuck out to me the most was the part about needing money to be happy.

I was not expecting it to start like that so I was quite surprised. The most interesting statement was when she said she had given up, because she gave up on a whole generation. That's kind of a big deal. I liked it when it went in reverse though.

at first i was confused, becuase who would write a negative poem. But then we read it backward and it all made sense. "in the future i will live in a country of my own making" stuck out to me becuase its motivational to make a difference in the world.

my first reaction was shocked. I think the statement that stuck out the most for me was that not just the poem itself, but the music sounded more hopeful when the poem was read backward.

my first reaction was like "why would we watch this its so sad and hopeless" I was also just really shocked. But at the end it was alot more hopeful and inspiring.what stuck out to me was when she said what she will tell her kids. This stood out because it was realley flipped the second time.

I thought the poem was interesting and the part were they said money can buy happiness stood out the most to me.

My first reaction to the poem was, "wow this is so dark." The statement that most stood out to me was the one about a negative climate change reaction, as it struck me that this idea is really not all that different than how some people view the problem today.

I was shocked at first when she said that her work was more important than her family. One statement that stuck out to me was when she said she was going to tell her children that money doesn't make people happy.

When I first heard the poem "First Generation" by Jonathan Reed, I was shocked. I was shocked that he was hopeless about our generation that he would tell his kids in 30 years that "they are not the most important thing in my life. My employer will know that I have my priorities straight because work is more important than family." This  made me angry. Family is the most important thing and will always be. When he continued writing about how our generation is lost, I didn't understand how he could label a whole generation as "lost" and "hopeless."

After that, when the poem was read the other was I found it inspiring. The messages were all reversed into something uplifting. It's about perspective, you can have a positive outlook on life or a negative one, you can let the opportunity to make a change go or you can take it. The quote "be the change you want to see in the world" became crystal clear, we have to be the change.

I liked this poem a lot because it was engaging. I think how the poem was read forward and backwards and how they had 2 very different meanings I think it was very creative

At first I was like "wow dang this is harsh" but then it was put into reverse and it was a very inspiring, positive-attitude kind of message. The line that stuck out the most to me was the line about how money is happiness.

My initial reaction was being  pretty surprised, the video kind of had dark tone and was being pretty bleak about the future. After it started to reverse, it started to have a more positive outlook. The statement that stuck with me the most was, “There is hope.” I just think it’s necessary to always be hopeful instead of being pessimistic.

I was pretty shocked when I first heard it. I was like what is this girl saying! That's harsh! But then when she read it backwords I was like oh my gosh that's so cool. I think it is such a good style of writing, and a good message if read a certain way

my first reaction was that the person speaking was hopeless and had given up on their generation. but wile reading it backwards it conveys that they are hopeful and believe that we can fix the earth and make our generation do good things for the future

I thought it was very cool how it went backwards and forwards. The title by itself stuck out to me because the work "lost generation" can mean many things :)

I was really shocked when the poem was read the first way because I thought it was inconsiderate for the person to label their whole generation as a generation that had given up and had no hope. Then when the poem was read going the other way I realized that it was meant to be encouraging and inspiring.

I feel that when she said things about a lost generation that this made me feel like this is a real thought.
