I don't think so? Starting to creep into it though. Gen Z cut off (majority were parented by Gen X) is 14 years old right now, and people are having children older, so I think the gradient is still mostly gen X. Of course that doesn't make millennials good parents either. I'm admittedly singling out Gen X based on personal vendettas, lol

I’m an older Millennial, my son is about to turn 20.

Alternating generations don't really line up with each other that well. Younger Gen Z are children of Mellenials.

I am on the ass end of Gen X (late 1970s) and almost 50. Most people had kids earlier than me and my kid is about to graduate.

The ass end 😆 I guess we could go find the actual mixture if it really mattered.

Yep. I'm a Xennial and could easily have grandkids like many in the small town I grew up in do. My millennial step-sister /is/ a grandparent (though she started young).

It's really hard to take you seriously when you can't spell millennial correctly, even with spell check and autocorrect.

Bold of you to assume I'm using either.
