The other day my roommate teased me for being from “like a generation almost” because I didn’t know what a Snapchat filter was, but you would never hear me actually say I belong in another time period because I think that kind of idealization of the past is dangerous. (Also there are plenty of things to celebrate about the present.) I can definitely see how changes in technology have created positive changes in society, and so I really identify with your post and also a previous commenter’s statement that we shouldn’t be apologetic about our generation.

Although I do believe that there is always a disconnect between generations, it is insightful to play devil’s advocate and really understand why generations have the relationships that they do.

I think every generation has been misunderstood by the former generation. How do you think traditionalist 50’s parents felt when their “raised right” kids grew into free loving flower children? Yes, people seem to really hate millennials, but adults always misunderstand youth- old people like to titter and say “in my day we’d never…”, the music is too loud, the pop culture too vapid. It’s not unique to our generation. What is unique and may be caused by our indulgent self awareness is the fact that we care so much. As the coddled generation, the ones who get a medal for showing up, we’ve come to rely on the approval of parents and adults around us, so we freak out when they don’t understand or approve of us. We shouldn’t be apologetic about the fact that we are different than previous generations- the fact that we are is an indicator of progress and social change.
