Molding a generation.

The thing I found interesting about these articles is that they try to understand a generation that has grown up under the influence of technology created by the educated generations of those before them. we are the by product of those before us. Children are exposed to the world that adults create. Technology is rarely created by children, the impact that advancing technology has on the fundamental growth of a child in our society is unknown to the generation before it. Technology growth is exponential, the changing effects on children will be seen in smaller and smaller generational samples, the "Me, me, me" article talks about this by stating that generations time frame will shrink and will be governed by technological progression.. 

Looking at myself it is easy to understand a millennial while also not understanding the desires of one. I get why people use social media, I just don't see the appeal is exposing your life to people. Perhaps that is why the "Twenty Somethings" article was closer to my experience as a millennial then the "Me, me, me" article. I took my time completing the milestones listed in the article, making sure and enjoying my path, not rushing into life altering decisions without understanding the full scope of what marriage and a family entail. The main goal of my life was to just be happy. I had a unhappy childhood and when I became independent for myself I just wanted to be happy.
