I think it is more important when your parents were born. My older sister and I are definitely Boomers born “48” & “51”. Our sister was born in 1958. Many of her friends had parents born in the late thirties as opposed to the late teens/early twenties like our parents. My sister was raised very different by much older parents, but her classmates whose parents were born in the thirties were a whole different generation culturally speaking even though they were born in 1958/59. Their parents did not really experience the depression nor fight in the war.
Ah, but I was born in 1960 and my sister 1964, but my father was born in the mid twenties and saw three years of World War II, three years of the Korean War, two years of Vietnam and lived through the Depression as a child and later as a young hired man and then CCC worker. Explain me? LOL
