Generation A

The Generation of Austerity

Today's crop of children, born between 2003-201x. They are the children of Generation X (those born from 1961-1981) who came right after the Baby Boomer Generation (those born from 1946-1964). The Generation A crowd will be the wave of people faced with reduced availability of luxuries and consumer goods, unstable employment prospects, declining quality in health care, declining interests in Wall Street and investing in American, esp. brought about by new government policies.

"Generation A will surely not have the toys that previous generations were afforded."

Generation Asshole 

A spoof term you can apply to any generation whose members you wish to impugn as a mass due to some unconsciously projected trait of your own such as laziness, entitlement, materialism or self-absorption.

Well, what the hell can you expect from someone who is a card carrying member of Generation Asshole?

Generation Alpha 

According to social researcher Mark McCrindle in his book 'The ABC of XYZ: Understanding the Global Generations' (www.mccrindle.com.au), this is what we can expect the next generation to be called. Given the fact that the generational span has contracted significantly from 20-25 years to 15 years, he also predicts that the next generation is due to begin in 2010.
So, why 'Alpha'? With generational analysis having moved from a stage of foundation to consolidation, a more predictable labelling system is being formed. There being consensus on the alphabetised theme of Generations X, Y and Z, it is most likely that the next generation will be Generation Alpha (the first letter of the Greek alphabet). This nomenclature of moving to the Greek alphabet after exhausting the Latin one (A, B, C, D etc), has a long history with meteorologists. In fact, scientists of all disciplines use the Greek alphabet as a labelling sequence and so it looks likely that the sociologists will follow this trend with the generations too.

"Do you know they are saying the next generation will be called Generation Alpha?"

Generation Alpha 

Genneration Alpha are kids born in the years 2012-present. They are the offspring of early generation Y's and late gen x's. They are going to be the most educated and tech savvy people that ever lived until the generation after gen alpha. They will basically be generation z 2.0. They don't remember a time before smartphones or facebook. They are some of the first people to experience a new education system in America with iPads and more collaborative learning. Someday they will be the leaders of the world but only time can tell what it will be like.

Woman: "Awww he's so cute, when was he born?"

Parent of Child: "He was born in 2012."

Woman:"He's got a bright future he's a generation alpha baby."

Generation Alpha 

Generation Alpha are the generation of children born between the early 2010s and mid 2020s (this is my estimate - not a confirmed fact). They are the Generation succeeding Generation Z, and preceding Generation Beta. They are normally the children of Millennials or older Generation Z. The oldest members of Generation Alpha may be children of Generation X. They are usually the grandchildren of baby boomers or older members of Gen X.

Unlike Gen Z, Generation Alpha will have no memory of the pre - smartphone era (this era began in about 2012). They have entertainment at their fingertips, since most adults now own a Netflix account.

They will have been educated in a different way to previous generations, since they have been aided by computer technology in most lessons for their entire life, unlike Generation Z, who will have recieved this partway through their school career.

They may be less cautious with hygiene than older generations, since they would have been too young to understand the Coronavirus when it happened, or they may not remember it at all.

This generation is, as of the time of writing this, too young to have culture, so it is hard to say what humour they will appreciate. However, with easy access to YouTube, just like Gen Z, they will probably develop a Random XD sense of humor (eg. The E or Hey 🅱️eter).

Generation Alpha will be the first generation to spend more than half of their childhood in the Post - Coronavirus Economy.
