I Am Not A 90's Kid
I was watching a documentary today, called Best of the 90’s, and I realized, though I was born in the decade, I am not a 90’s kid.
I am a member of Generation Z, everyone born since 1995. I am the last of the 90’s, born between 1995 and 1999.
We didn’t watch Darkwing Duck, or Sonic the Hedgehog, but we have cartoons of our own.
We remember having to rewind tapes, using VCR’s and watching technology change from this:
To this:
We may not remember much about Columbine, or 9/11, but we have grown up in the America shaped by those events, where it is impossible to remember a way any different.
We grew up hearing the words: economy, gas prices, unemployment, war, Iraq, Afghanistan, terrorism.
We have seen struggles and fights, and watched the world change to pave the way for equality and acceptance.
So no, we may not be “90’s kids”. But we are a unique generation. The bridge between the past and the new millennium.
What generation do you belong to? What is something you remembered about when you were a kid?
