Generation alpha is so fucking lost.
Well done parents who are constantly on their smartphones instead being there for their children.
Ok zoomer
I'm a millennial thank you very much.
Nooo come on, let millennials be the ones to leave this generational war stuff in the past.
We as a species love to judge people based on their age. And it goes both ways. Us millenials will be as reviled as boomers are by the younger folks soon. And I'm sure more and more millenials like OP will make dumbass comments about those same young folks in return. It's the circle of life.
I too wish we could all judge people based on their actions rather than their age. But it'll never happen
I can't deny my age, now can I?
Yeah but you can choose to not post.
Sigh I’m a millennial (82) with a gen alpha kid, and you’re an idiot.
I guess I am then when I see all those parents with their strollers in trams and underground tubes staring down their phones instead of giving their kids any attention.
Then you’d remember that kid who killed his brother over a cheeseburger.
Gen Z and Alpha are more like us than any others.
Yeah true every gen had some psychos. But good parenting could help in some cases to not turn into something as violent as this.
Are you a parent?
Already claimed to be millennial so I’m guessing either 0 or 5 kids with no I’m between
