generation y 

This term applies more to kids born in the early 80s (1982)-early 2000s.. Another name for this generation is Millennial. Nintendo/games and consoles got even more popular, more music came along and MTV was still big. These are today's young people.

Gen x applies to people born in the mid 60s-early 80s (1980-1981). This is where games such as Nintendo consoles were getting popular and MTV.

Baby boomer applies to people born in the mid 40s and early 60s. This was the baby boom after world war II.
The latest generation applies to people born in mid 2000s to now. These are today's children in birth-elementary school.

Generation y : We are the greatest generation alive!
Baby boomers: We're the best!
The latest generation: We will be better than every generation!

generation y 

The pampered children of the Baby Boom who have never done without. They are now coming of age in the workforce, born between 1980 and 2000, and their well-heeled parents will ensure their promotion into jobs ahead of older, lackluster Generation X candidates.

Generation Y 

This overrated bunch of kids that are still are "kids" when they are the age of 30. They never seem to grow up. I seen these idiots dressing like they are still in high school, and having kids on their own. They'll probably be the worst parents ever.

These kids were raised in a day care all their life, and they assume that society should be run like a day care, as in having the government take care of them so they can run around and screw other girls. They are at the age of 30 and still love to play World of Warcraft; get a life. They are immature, have no life, have big mouths, dress like idiots (I seen these 30 year olds dressing like a gangsta at Wal Mart while having 2 kids), but they think their shit don't stink. They believe in outdated ideas such as the legalization of weed and vote for some dumbshit because he is "like so gangsta yo and he is the first black president...he is more RUSSIAN." They also claim good music has to be "organic", without this computerized bullshit. We are in the 21st century you hippies.

Generation Y are just dumbed down Boomers.

Generation Y 

The offspring of Generation X and the baby boomers, born typically between the mid 1970s and mid 1990s. The affects of the previous generation’s bad parenting skills has rubbed off onto Generation Y. As a result, it’s called the “me” generation and known by its egos, superficiality, sensuality, materialism, entitlement, instant gratification, selfishness, poor work ethic, and a general lack of responsibility. Generation Y has been bombarded by violence, sex and too much information—mostly bad—being shoved down their throats by the media and our culture. As a result, Generation Y is the generation of school shootings; you can’t even go to school anymore without fear of being shot. This generation knows more about the Simpsons than they do about our founding fathers. Generation Y also looks to miscreants like Brittany Spears and Paris Hilton as role models rather than Martin Luther King. It pays more attention to what’s going on in Hollywood than what’s going in the world around them. Generation Y has given us the cell phone, IPOD, the iPhone, the internet, text massaging, PDAs, Nintendo 64, Nintendo Game Cube, American Idol, TIVO, Starbucks, MySpace and E-Bay.

With the bad social vices and immorality of Generation Y, I’m afraid to see what the next generation will look like. Our society will only get worse.

Generation Y 

Generation Y otherwise known as echo boomers, or Millennials, is the term for the Generation born between 1980 and 1995. Most of them are children of either Baby boomers or Generation X.

These people are the first to grow up with technology, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the recession of 2008. By the Mid-2010s, they will be the largest working force in the United States.

These are the Generation demographics:
Greatest: 1901-1924
Silent: 1925-1945
Baby Boom:1946-1964
Gen X: 1965-1980
Gen Y: 1980-1995
Gen Z: 1996-present

To be clear, Generation Y last through 1995, then 1996 is the start of generation Z

Generation Y 

The offspring of Generation X and the Baby boomers. Also known as the “me” generation. It’s a generation of young persons born typically between 1980 and 2000, and the offspring of dysfunctional parenting practices of Generation X that has resulted in inflated egos, entitlement, selfishness, materialism, debauchery, and a lack of responsibility. It’s the generation of the cell phone, IPOD, the iPhone, TIVO, Hannah Montana, High School Musical, Sponge Bob, and school shootings.

Generation Y is a troubled generation, and its values will be the eventual downfall of our country.
