[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think this has anything to do with millennials or the economy or anything listed here. Anyone who has taught or worked with children over the past 20-30 years can tell you that parents are massively more anxious and hovering than they used to be, and this is due to one thing: the Internet. Since the late 1990s parents have made the internet into an echo chamber of their anxieties, causing everything from the ridiculous anti-vaccine movement to the epidemic of “have you had your child tested??” diagnoses. And most of the parents doing all of this have been Gen X, not Millenials.[/quote] I guess it's nice to have one's existence acknowledged - a rare occurrence -- even if it's only to be blamed. -Gen Xer[/quote] :D[/quote]
