I’m a 1982 “elder millennial” and I used to rail against generational divides but honestly I do see a change even from people born a couple years before me. I had digital everything as it came out, my lunch card was a bar code, we had computers everywhere in elementary school. But we also remember the very last of the old world, analog was still everywhere, parenting was much looser.

So now I have become a little protective of the millennial grouping because they feel like my people.

I hear the same from the Gen Z folks who were in HS and college when COVID hit, absolutely. Shared experiences build camaraderie.
