Gen Jones for me too, mid '64. For a long time we were lumped with the baby boomers, which I was never comfortable with. Me too, along with President Obama. I experienced so many things differently from the early Baby Boomers.

Well I guess I am technically a Baby boomer (1946 - 1964) but I was born 12/24/64, so I think I can also claim to be a bit of a Gen X’er. 😄. The lost generation? 😉😆

Bwahahahaha! Dh and I are firmly in Generation X, we have Millenials, though our youngest is the cusp.

Those are hilarious. Gen X truly is the forgotten middle child.

In fairness as a Gen X-er my whole life plan has been to neither boss nor be bossed. yup, this is me, too. Just leave me alone and let me do my thing. (just had a couple discussions about this at my workplace, lol)

Nope, Boomers raised them. We raised Gen Z and they are awesome! Well, I'm "Generation Jones" - too young to be a true Boomer; too old to be a true Gen X - born in late '64... and I have two millennials and two Gen Z! And they are honestly very, very different. It's interesting to see. I am with you. I am spring of 1963. I get pissed when I get called "Boomer". I have 3 millennials and one Gen Z.

Gen X and a middle child, kind of used to being ignored.

I was raised by early boomers, I am solidly GenX (but have some xennial tendencies due to early tech adoption in my home), and I am raising GenZ (14-year-olds).
That was funny and true. GenX Tik Tok is pretty hilarious (but some "try too hard IMO)
Most of my friends in my general age group (I turn 50 this year) have raised late millennials and GenZ with just a small smattering of mid-Millenials and Gen Alpha (2011 to present)

My household is pretty funny. DH is technically a Baby Boomer (1963). I'm a GenX (1970), and are kids are Millenial (1991) and GenZ (2000). We have all the bases covered!

Another Gen X that raised 2 Millennials and 2 Gen Z. I will say my oldest is outstanding for a Millennial and my youngest a Gen Z is always giving me grief.
