#i generation

Most of us are still pretty young so I’d like us to take a moment to commit a snapshot of this time to memory. Remember not knowing what you’re doing with your life. Remember being open to new ideas. Remember being excited by progress instead of scared by it.

Ian Baxter grew up loving video games. His dad would buy him the best set up he could imagine and he was hooked ever since. He moved to a small apartment in San Myshuno and spent his days gaming and going to geek con. He wasn’t much of a social person, being more introverted, so he would pay for some social interactions. Through this he became the single father of his daughter Jessie, the mother not being interested in being one.

As time went on he found that he was in love with her and felt that just maybe he could possibly be “husband material”, so he proposed. He became a homebody and built a home for his new family out of his huge Del Sol Valley mansion.

They spent time together, creating their life together and eventually he kept his promise and became her husband.

With Ian becoming the new heir.

More likely to use Instagram than FacebookSo just to fill people in I-generation is the current generation of young people, start and end dates not official but I feel my age group is for sure apart of it. At the moment people believe the I-Generation to be from 1995-2012, but some have gone up to 2016. Here are some points I found interestingly actuate. 

- People from the  I-Generation are less likely to drink: I think this is really actuate, most of my friends don’t drink or don’t drink often. I think the reason for this is because there isn’t social pressure of drinking alcohol. Peer pressure isn’t too much of an issue and nobody feels obliged to drink too much. I myself, don’t drink too much alcohol, mainly because I think its a waste of time. The thought of being drunk is both scary and stupid to me. Most people regret it.

- We are much more tolerant of others (cultures, sexuality, race): This is possibly the biggest plus of the generation. Not counting the internet of course with 4-chan and SJW raids. But generally, in real life, we are accepting of everyone. Talk to mostly anyone around the age of 13-22 about LGBT stuff and it most likely won’t bother them. And if it dose bother them there is almost always someone who’d have a go at them. I think there is also a rise in LGBT people because of the lack of judgement by peers. 

-  Delay serious romantic relationships: Most of the people my age, either wait for the right person or hop between people. I myself have only been in 1 relationship plus 1 almost-relationship. I have friends who’ve never had relationships and some not bothered about having one anytime soon (including myself).  I think generally, our generation is more picky and patient or just like being in relationships that aren’t that serious. 

- Delay driving: Yeah just like alcohol I have friends who aren’t interested in driving. Yet again, I’m one of these people. I just don’t trust myself on a road.

- Less likely to go see a movie: Yep. Putlocker, 123 movies and other pirate websites helped with this. Not something I do personally with movies, especially ones in cinemas. I know a lot of people who don’t care about giving people in the film industry money...

I’ve outlined the more positive points, there are more “negative” points such as the late nights, overuse of technology. lack of social face to face contact and undoubtedly the worst of all the rise in mental health problems and suicide, a problem that has effected most teens in some way. I’m guilty of late nights and technology use and to some extent the lack of irl socialising (I’m better then I was). Of course I’ve had my issues with mental heath, especially my anxiety. I’m quite lucky that depression isn’t too much of an issue.

But let’s look more at the positives, I personally feel they outweigh the negatives.
