What Is "Generation Y" ?

SnoValley: What Is "Generation Y" ?

I've always wondered this myself... And Now I know !

People born before 1946 were called The Silent Generation.

The Baby Boomers are those born between 1946 and 1959.

Generation X people have been born between 1960 and 1979.

Generation Y were born between 1980 and 2010

Why do we call the last group Generation Y?

Y should I get a job ?
Y should I leave home and find my own place ?
Y should I get a car when I can borrow yours ?
Y should I clean my room ?
Y should I wash and iron my own clothes ?
Y should I buy any food ?

Yes I'm aware of the US' political system but Generation Y extends to the rest of the world. Don't only look at the US.
All rhetorical questions, meaning we've addressed social issues example the 'occupy protest'. We've dealt with political issues and dictators as 'the Arab spring'. Also improve on technology.

Sad thing is the Y Generation might grow up and start being condescension to the next Generation. Without realising that each generation rebelled and did their mess in their time...

duncan124: " y should I buy any food?"

Which generation was responsible for the BSE disaster? Who put sheep and pigs into cattle food?

- it is food supplements for cattle in cold weather or when they are hungry that stops TB in cattle rather then killing other things.

duncan124: No sno it was everywhere. Perhaps there was n,t much cattle left in the USA. Everywhere else had why did n,t you?

I noticed the Govt paper(PDF) that went along with the announcement of the killing of badgers also failed to mention the Govt efforts to stop BSE by paying farmers for the distruction of their herds and instead laughably said there was an outbreak of foot in mouth in 2001.
Not a word about the experiences of John Majors and Tony Blairs fights with BSE.
