Here comes the "Alpha Generation!"

“Here comes Generation Alpha” by Steve Adams
I remember the “adults” commenting about us and our generation when we were teenagers. They did not understand or appreciate our music or our slang. We, on the other hand, could not understand why the old fogeys had no clue. Inevitably, someone in the grown-up crowd would comment about how one day our generation would be in charge and the world would end.
I am now a card-carrying AARP member myself and felt quite bedazzled when I heard a 12-year-old use modern slang terms that I did not understand. In fact, his whole conversation sounded like gibberish to me and the thought went through my head, “This modern generation has no hope…” It was at that point that I caught myself being MY PARENTS!!!
Evolving slang and social mannerisms happen naturally, but they do not necessarily mean the next generation is lost. Different, maybe, but still loving and smart, no cap, even with their weird skibidi face when you ask them about a friend who has no rizz.
