      In the literal sense, yes, but not in the context of marketing cohorts, which are usually based on birth date ranges and are used to group members of society who experience similar pressures and exhibit similar behaviors. Gen Y/Millennial and Gen Z are marketing terms, so it’s possible for a parent to have a child in each.

        Thank you for the thoughtful reply. I was trying to be funny but it totally missed the mark and fell flat. Oh well 🤷‍♂️ I do think it would be nice if we didn’t find ourselves referring to our social constructs in terms of marketing cohorts.

          After Trump, it has become impossible to tell if someone is joking or serious.

        There’s also us zillenials born between 1990 - 1996. The defining feature is that we’re old enough that we were alive during 9/11 but were too young to understand the way it changed society at the time. Our formative years also occurred during both pre and post internet being everywhere.

      What?

      If you have 1 child born in 1995 and another born in 1999, then your children are of two separate generations.
