Assigning "blame" for cultural changes to groups of individuals simply by the date they were born is even junkier science than John Edward's cerebral palsy propaganda.

You know I was just thinking the same thing.

Perhaps the legacy of the Generation Xers is that they are the first generation to be so damn ungrateful that they blame everything wrong with their lives on the people who did the best they could before these whiney babies came along.

You may be on to something... X-ers certainly have known greater levels of scientific and medical advancement, comfort, wealth and security than any prior generation.

A lack of hardship in children leads to self-indulgence, feelings of entitlement and skewed perspective of their good fortune.

X-ers.... The Spoiled Rotten Generation LOL

Blame? whiney babies?

Who here is willing to accept responsibility for their generation?

In 1992 Bill Clinton's second widest demographic (behind seniors) was people under 30, he won that vote by 9 points.

In 1996 Bill Clinton's largest demographic, by 19 points, was the under 30 crowd, followed by the seniors.

This is my generation (though I was not 18 until the 1996 election) and I accept that. I only ask - who ran the media and the schools? Who raised these voters?
