Top 4 Reasons It’s Time To Stop Sh***ing On Millennials

Millennials

by Eli Bowman

Are Millennials the “perfect” generation? No. But can you name a perfect one? Even the Greatest Generation had their flaws. So why do we constantly see Gen Xers and Baby Boomers tossing copious amounts of shade in the direction of young people? What is it about the Millennial generation that can stir up so much vitriol from members of other generations?

Is is jealousy? Maybe. Disenfranchised or dissatisfied people sometimes resent the youth of the world because they have so much potential and possibility in front of them. They also know how to effectively utilize new innovations in the tech world which some Gen Xers and Baby Boomers haven’t quite figured out yet, which can come off as pretentious to some. But there isn’t any really convincing data that shows Millennials are innately smarter than any other generation…they just have grown up in a new world.

Yes, I said that they have grown up. Millennials, for all intents and purposes, are now 18 to 35 year olds. A coveted demographic among companies who sell, well, just about everything. That’s why the world might look so different to a Boomer and also why some Gen Xers have seen some their favorite pastimes re-enter the picture, only to be quickly replaced by the pastimes of today’s older Millennials. Yes, Millennials are starting to enter into decision-making roles within companies, which means you’ll continue to see more Millennial friendly stuff for the next few years…get used to it.

Sure, Millennials are a bit self-absorbed, thin-skinned, and even overconfident…but these are traits of ALL young people, including those from every other generation ever. So it could be that the world just hasn’t thrown them around enough. Perhaps all the participation medals they’ve received have given them a false sense of what to expect. Maybe having a smart phone since middle-school has made them a little less eager to dig deep and hard for answers like Gen Xers and Baby Boomers had to do…but is that their fault?

I’ll help you out there. The answer is NO.

Let’s stop sh***ing on Millennials for a second to actually address the elephant in the room. I know I know…it’s been glaring at you from the corner for a while now, maybe even for a few years. It’s hard to admit it since we just love dissing them so much (and they make it so easy sometimes), but it’s time we finally put to rest what the remainder of us have secretly known to be true. That Millennials are going to save us all. That behind all of their immaturity, blind ambition, and sense of entitlement, they have some other traits that, once refined by the world a little, will actually end up saving it. Here are a few traits about Millennials that are unique to them..that make them vastly different from the other generations alive today. Things that demand our respect and attention. For that reason, let’s take a look at the top 4 reasons it’s time to give millennials a break:
