Do you think millennials who grew up with the early Internet and home computers will be as bad with future technology as boomers are with current technology?

My wife and I started talking about this after she had to help an old lady at the DMV figure out how to use her iPhone to scan a QR code. We're in our early 40s.

I thought you said zoomer parents and was about to get really mad and sad at the time.

I mean older Gen Z are 20-24. I’m a millennial and I was a dad at 23 haha. It’s early, but not unreasonably so.

To 26 actually. Gen Z starts in 1997.

Eh the borderline years are all subjective.

But yes. Mid twenties is a reasonable time to start having kids

Heh heh heh, I thought he said Boomer parents and I was wondering where the heck they got iPads

@AA5B @Albbi
Old people (I mean even older than me on the very tail end of the boom) love tablets and smartphones. They might not use a huge number of apps, or be able to install an app, but just like Donald Trump, they can text and use social media to excess.
