I’m a millennial with boomer parents, who are famous for their hands-off parenting approach. Just wondering.

    “Zillenial” here and well, maybe? My parents let me use the internet with little-to-no moderation and growing up with very few friends, I would often frequent the internet. Back then, it was when the internet required dial-up so I would either be on the internet on Saturdays or stuck on my computer preparing materials to send to the internet.

          As I like to think of it … post-Jurassic Park or post Matrix Millenials. Too young to have seen those in the cinemas.

          I’m a Xennial (part X gen part millennial, born mid-80s), and seeing both of those in the cinema were huge events.
