Millennials

The Milliennials generation is those born between 1977 and 1994. They make up 20% of the world population today including 70 million in the United States. Some people feel that there are 3 major characteristics describing the Millennial generation: 1) They are racially and ethnically diverse, 2) They are extremely independent because of divorce, day care, single parents, latch key parenting, and the technological revolution that they are growing up alongside, and 3) They feel empowered; thanks to overindulgent parents, they have a sense of security and are optimisticabout the future. Personally I agree with all of these statements, especially number two because divorce rates have increased tremendisally and that we are very technological due to the rise of technology every year.
