WHO ARE GENERATION Z?
* Generation Z are those people born from 1995 to the end of 2009.
* They are the next generation after Generation Y (today’s teenage and twentysomethings).
* They are largely the children of Generation X.
* They are in their childhood although at the oldest edge they are approaching their teenage years.
* They are today’s children and students, and tomorrow’s employees and leaders.
* They are the world’s first 21st Century generation - the digital natives, the dot com kids, Generation Media.
* They are today’s emerging generation who resemble children of any era past, yet they personify our future.

I thought it was a 'stage' too, but my girl is 31 and I still get vibes from her that it's our fault when things go wrong ;D The boys are different, they haven't shown any signs of "you owe me", so it may be a girl thing.

What is sad Misi, is we know we weren't like that and we didn't teach our girls to be like that ... I'd be interested to know who did. Of course I have my theories and the first one would be television, specifically shows from America that are based on the young and their attitudes towards their parents and their rights. Second would be the overuse of councellors and their 'book learned advice' vs. parents 'real life experience' advice .. don't mum & dad know best?? ;D
