Robert, I am glad that you decided to go against your generation's stereotype and do something, instead of slacking. Everyone should be entitled to his or her own opinion, and so I respect you for putting yours. Now, I hope that you have have the respect to read through my opinion.
I thoroughly understand your angst from being put down by the baby boomers, but I do not agree with your idea of taking out your frustrations on my generation. The last time that I checked, name calling was very immature as well as disrespectful, but you still chose to describe my generation in your article as, "naive, self-important crybabies." Wouldn't you say that could qualify as grade school behavior?
I found your article written with prejudice and ignorance. It is true that what Kevin Colvin did was not professional in the slightest bit, but that in no way means that he represents Generation Y as a whole. This relates to your article, when you mentioned that the two people in GrossBookSistah were not representative of your generation, Generation X. I have concluded from this that certain individuals in a generation are not directly related to a generation, so other than from your opinion, where is your support that Kevin represents Generation Y?
The accomplishments of your generation are impressive. As you said in your article, Generation X founded Google, Myspace, YouTube, Ebay, etc. You went against the prejudice of your generation and proved yourselves. That is outstanding, but it would be unfair to say that everyone was against Generation X when that generation was growing up. I am sure that there were also supporters of your generation, as well as opposers, just as there are for my generation. I hope that you will keep your mind open enough to the idea that you are underestimating Generation Y.
Who is to say that there isn't a pattern of generation hate? You said that the Baby Boomers didn't approve of your generation and now you are showing that you don't approve of mine. Maybe I will have angst too and I'll write something about the next generation. Could there be a hint of generation rivalry along the line? Who's to say? I just hope that you stay mature and keep respect for my generation because you never know what will happen.
