How might our attitudes toward the modern world influence our assessment of Paleolithic societies? (AP level)

I feel people's views on Paleolithic life has changed due to our modern societies we have now a days. Most of the people of our time are blessed to have food and shelter. We never have to work as hard as the Paleolithic people have. Some might look down on the Paleolithic people because they might have been thought of as "less fortunate" than the people of our times. I feel if we still had to work for our food by hunting for it, or our homes by building it ourselves, people would see the Paleolithic life easier than what people understand of it now.
