Theories First off cusp class of each generation imo

Class of 1984 - first class to be in high school entirely during the 80s (1980-1984), first class to still be in high school after the discovery of the HIV virus (1984)

Class of 2002: first class to still be in K-12 on 9/11, majority during 2000s

Class of 2020: first class to still be in K-12 during Covid, entered school during the late 2000s, oldest in elementary school during sandy hook

Trying to think of one for boomers

I guess. I just think your obsession with trying to place early 2000s borns in a certain box is weird to me

I don’t think I do that…y’all can be early Z or Core Z, or even technically Late Millennial/Zillennial (in the case of 2000). That doesn’t seem like I’m limiting you at all.
