Built by X -Generation Me and The Why-Worry Generation

Generation X worked hard; fought for their accomplishments. This generation faced the uncertainty of the coming future pos Second Great War. Their future was a mystery more than it is for the generation Y’s future. The cold war was always side by side with their lives; the dangerous of an atomic war to explode in American territory per example was imminent in their minds. Maybe all this stress made the Generation X more “man”, strong to grow in a suffered society. However, generation’s readings of this week, written by generation X members, tries to evidence how spoil generation Y is. I complete agree with many of the points presented by them, which described the spoiled kids, teenagers, and adults of the generation Y. Though, remember that we are a generation raised by the X’s. In addition I say that Generation Y has a much higher familiarity with communication, media and digital technologies than all the other generations have ever had. The proximity produced by airplanes, internet and cell phones has put this generation together as was never seen in the history of the mankind. A friend in Alaska can receive an email from you just right after you click on send; you can fly from Los Angeles to New York in less than an afternoon. More creations of generation X. The baby boomers gave us the easiness to acquire knowledge from the internet, where you can find explanations, biographies or any material for research much faster and practicable than any other book. The libraries used once by generation X can soon become obsolete. And that’s not a bad thing. I do not know if my generation will succeed, but I know we were raised by the ones that call us spoiled, made us like that. Even though we are spoiled, the possibilities to expand our intelligence in exponential levels are right in front of the screen of this laptop, created also by generation X. They can say anything about the Y’s but they were the ones that made us as we are.
