Do you guys ever resent your parents for getting documented before you? Because you can contribute way more than your parents can because you're younger, and you are presumably better educated.

Yeah I'll be 28 during the adjustment process. But please PLEASE try not to consider your 20's a wasted time. With an EAD you can work and start a career. It won't be optimal but don't let it waste.
As for resenting your parents.... I do resent my dad. Something that has been hard for me to deal with. He let the process drag on and when I pushed for it to happen, he got his green card when I had just turned 21! Well I've paid my dues and hope it'll be over soon.
