Talking About My Generation-X
Gen-X is the asterisk in the generational
handbook, sandwiched between Baby Boomers and Millennials.
We were the original latch-key kids, veterans of don't cry or I'll give you something to cry for. We roamed the streets on bikes or trusted Pete and Charlie (our feet) to get around. Our knees are battle-tested and most of us still have the scars. We didn't need a watch. When the "streetlights came on, it was time to go home." The nightly news' haunting question, "Do you know where your children are?" might as well have been our anthem.
Soon the elder statespeople of Gen X are going to turn 60, which is yet another milestone. As we get older and some of the familiar faces of our childhood, teen, and twenties begin to fade, how are we meeting the day? What are we thinking about? Tune in and let us know what you're planning.
