I’m a millennial with boomer parents, who are famous for their hands-off parenting approach. Just wondering.
Yup. Born in '84, parents were born in '50 and not really fit to be parents. Basically took care of myself from 11ish onwards and was raised almost entirely by TV and Internet from age 8 and 14 onwards lol.
i’m an older millennial/younger gen x and i was raised by books and some truly great, saintly teachers. teachers can make such a difference, yall
I work retail and if I learn the customer is a teacher I go so above and beyond to make sure they don’t pay for what they are getting(if it is for the classroom) and make sure they are very happy with the whole experience. Teachers change life’s for the better and are not treated the way they need to be.

I think you either have this backwards, or might be Benjamin Button.
No, this is correct. They were born between, let’s say, 1978-1982. That would but them at the end of Gen X (making them a young X) or beginning of millennial (making then an older millennial)
oh for sure. Of course, my parents were straight up negligent so it wasnt hard for the internet to win that competition.
I grew up the youngest of 5 children—with all siblings >10 years older—with immigrant parents who were mostly working. So, yea, at times it does feel like the internet raised me
Millennial def raised by the internet here. I used to be on the computer non-stop until my parents got home from work. Then I would weasel my way into more computer time after dinner too. All to work on my Angelfire hosted website that definitely never got any traffic.
