I’m genX. The article is complete nonsense.
Gen X are attempting to do better than their boomer parents did. Generally speaking it’s not a very high bar to go over.
I think with anything though it really depends on the upbringing a person gets. The ability to think, to make comparisons, to learn from mistakes, to have introspection about what you’re doing, not lie to yourself or procrastinate, and make changes, is critical.
It’s not really stuff taught in schools or by a lot of parents anymore.
Tell it! It’s something somebody cooked up some how, some way, for some reason ... that’s the mystery.
I’m GenX and my kid was raised to be independent, non bubblewraped and given plenty of rope to hang herself several times over. Like parents used to do. It worked just fine. Without going into the details, she managed an Iraq deployment, earned 2 degrees during a career working on America’s top jets and left the USAF to enter a lucrative profession by age 25.
GenX isn’t the problem. Millenials aren’t the problem. What Liberalism did to Generation Reagan, those that followed and American attitudes overall is the problem.

I’m with you. Nonsense.
Why?
