A Reddit user named Youssef4573 asked the AskReddit subforum: What is something you can say I'm with the boomers on this one’s about? Over 4,700 people responded to the question.

The most prevalent problems mentioned by the younger generations were overreliance on technology, the modern world's lack of human touch and how Gen Xers and millennials have raised their children.

"People in our generation are far, far too sensitive," says VapeDerp420 .

"A kid in 2024 should have the same freedom to exist unsupervised and move about their community independently as a boomer did growing up," says PixelatedFish .

"The world is safer than it's ever been and people are more scared than ever," says CattonCruthby .
