[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.

As a GenX-er, I kinda hate both the Boomers and the Millennials, but will end up siding with the Millennials, because the Boomers have for the most part pulled up the ladder behind them, as a poster above said.    [/quote]
