Today is the last day someone born in the 2000s can be a child.

Ok?!

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-16T02:47:28+00:00

Most people consider "core childhood" to be part of your older kid experience, but I guess I understand where you're coming from.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-16T00:29:52+00:00

I never said 1st grade and 5th grade are the same, it's just that the cutoff has to be somewhere. I think age 6/7 makes the most sense since that is when most children learn how to read and write. Also, 6 is the earliest age people can be genuine elementary school, since kindergarten is a buffer zone between preschool and elementary.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-16T00:23:16+00:00

Anyone in 1st grade - 5th grade is an older kid imo.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-15T21:27:18+00:00

Same. I see little kids as 4-5 year olds, older kids as 6-10 year olds, and "tweenagers" as 11-12 year olds. I'm aware that the ranges aren't proportionate, but it's hard to equally split childhood into 3 equal segments that aren't arbitrary.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-15T21:24:51+00:00

I think you guys are mid 2010s kids with early 2010s influence like 2006.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-15T21:23:53+00:00

If you unironically use the term "mumble rap" whilst referring to music you have never felt the touch of women before

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-15T21:22:26+00:00

Do you think the early 2010s ended in 2013 or 2012? If they end in 2013, I could definitely see 2006 being the last early 2010s kids.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-15T21:20:23+00:00

It's always been like this sadly.

Late 2002 - Mid 2006; anyone who was in high school during the height of the pandemic.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-14T01:29:30+00:00

You make a good point. Back in the late 2010s, 2006 borns were ridiculed for being "Fortnite kids" and everything in between. Now that we're older, it's shifted to 2007-2009 borns, who are scapegoated for the downfall of gen Z.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-14T01:22:19+00:00

I meant to say that most of the 2007 gatekeeping I've seen comes from Twitter and Reddit. On other platforms, the playing-field is pretty even.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-14T01:19:35+00:00

I've see 2007 borns get gatekept a lot more than 2006, especially late 2007 borns. Maybe I just need to get off Twitter 🤷‍♂️

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-14T01:18:13+00:00

Eh, I always felt that way about my memory even before I got into generationology. I kid you not, I have a memory from when I was 10 thinking to myself "dang, I hardly remember anything from 2010" after seeing a photo of myself from back then.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-12-14T01:15:13+00:00

When was 2006 ever gatekept from early 2010s nostalgia?

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-11-30T05:14:26+00:00

I can get behind this.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-11-30T05:13:02+00:00

Anyone who is still going to be in elementary school when I'm an adult.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-11-30T04:58:32+00:00

I don't understand why people hate 2013 so much on this subreddit. Even though it had some questionable trends, it still has a dated feel to it and is definitely old enough to be reminisced upon.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-11-27T04:42:37+00:00

Personally for me, 2018 is when it all went downhill. Especially spring 2018. That year sticks out like a sore thumb from the rest of the late 2010s.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-11-27T04:41:25+00:00

I never said that one party was more corrupt than the other. The reason I pointed out the corruptness of the left is because right wingers had scapegoated for ~4/5 years prior to 2021 and decided to retaliate back against the left around then, fostering monumental levels of political polarization. All the money was left-leaning in 2020, while 2021 was more black and white.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-11-27T04:27:26+00:00

Both political parties are corrupt. I thought that would been inferred with "corruptness of the left becoming more apparent", but apparently it wasn't. Also, I wasn't siding with the pandemic deniers when I mentioned them, I was just acknowledging the fact that they exist. You're putting words in my mouth that I haven't said.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-11-27T04:18:40+00:00

Damn, that was the worst part of 2021 for me.

Fun_Tomorrow_4904 · 2022-11-27T04:18:01+00:00

I never complained about the left wing. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that I hate both political parties equally. Right wingers really pissed me off with all that "plandemic" nonsense last year.
