Pretty sure the absolute upper age of Millennials are 42 years old now.

Gen X Omnicompetence Syndrome strikes again.

It's not enough to be good at some things and bad at others, they must be super good at everything because Self Reliant!

Which is how you get middle managers in graphic design departments trained for 3 weeks on COBOL trying to write a website from scratch instead of using a template or hiring a company or, indeed, getting literally anyone else in the company to do it.

They forgot about the parts where you had to basically parent your younger siblings and if something ever happened it scarred you for life.

Also the way this "free childhood" opened us up for abuse and all that good stuff.

Would have preferred if even one adult would have known where I am half the time, it's actually not nice to have to behave like you are 30 at age 10.

It's not the flex we think it is. It also made some of us into pretty toxic self-reliance talk parroting ableists.

Ah yes, millennials love reading out Facebook memes about how tough older generations were verbatim

Pretty accurate from my childhood tbh

Ofc it’s not good. Big “sure we lost a few, but as a society it’s a price we should be willing to pay” energy
