Enough with the manufactured controversies. My Gen-Z kids are working hard. The Gen Z kids where I work do 60-70 hour weeks during tax season. They still can't afford decent housing. Why is that?
If we want to point fingers then let's ask some questions:
If everything was so fricking awesome with the boomers, etc., then why did the country go to absolute crap under their watch?
When did divorce become a thing? Oh, the 70's? Who were the adults at that time? - hmmm not X'rs, Millennials or Gen Z, so who does that leave?
When did single parenting become a thing? That's right, you guessed it, the 70's.
What generation were the latch key kids? Oh yeah, Gen-X. Who were their parents?
Which generation said, "never trust anyone over 30?" Yep, that's right, the ones who still won't relinquish power in their 70's and 80's.
You get the idea.
Maybe we should all just shut up about generations. Every generation has great people and awful people. It is the human condition
