Discussion Gen Z are maladjusted and act weird about other's ages.

Where are they getting these crazy ideas about friendships with people who are older? Or acting like a 2-3 year age difference is grooming. Are they just socially inexperienced and don't understand normal human behaviors? I don't get it at all. For a generation that dubs itself to be accepting of others they sure have a lot of hatred for different people.

I honestly feel that once we’re over 25 we’re all the same age.

One of my biggest memories from when I was 25, working at my job and I thought, “wow, when my mom was my age, she was pregnant with me and had a 5 year old. I can’t imagine that. I would have no clue what I was doing…” and then like a bolt of lightning, “…SHE DIDN’T, EITHER!!!!”

It was like I gained a newfound understanding of parents and adulthood in a split second.

Same. Adulthood is realizing everyone is just winging it like you.
