’Dr Phil’ Guests Discuss Sensitivity Behind Generations

As a whole, Baby Boomers, those born between 1946 -1964, believe they have worked hard, sacrificed, and paid their dues – and that the younger generation is entitled and sits on social media all day, expecting to get everything handed to them. However, Gen Z, those born between 1997 – 2012, blame Baby Boomers for the current state of the environment and the economy. Since 2019, the hashtag #okboomer has been used 3.7 B times on TikTok to describe a Baby Boomer being “out of touch.” Is Gen Z really being coddled, whereas Boomers “pulled themselves up by their bootstraps”? And, how is that affecting their mental health?  Dr. Phil discusses these generational differences -- societal values, work ethic, use of technology -- and if these two generations, 50 years apart, are really that different, after all.
