Your question implicitly suggests that you wouldn’t have problems managing young, unmotivated, change resisting programmers.

If so, do you think there is an innate difference between old unmotivated, change resisting programmers and young unmotivated, change resisting ones, or could your attitude towards the two groups be different?

Young people generally don't resist change because change benefits them. People who have invested 5 years into an obsolete skillset are most resistant to change.
