Pretty sure mellenials are the majority of parents, including parents of teens, right now.

I don't think so? Starting to creep into it though. Gen Z cut off (majority were parented by Gen X) is 14 years old right now, and people are having children older, so I think the gradient is still mostly gen X. Of course that doesn't make millennials good parents either. I'm admittedly singling out Gen X based on personal vendettas, lol

I’m an older Millennial, my son is about to turn 20.

Alternating generations don't really line up with each other that well. Younger Gen Z are children of Mellenials.

I am on the ass end of Gen X (late 1970s) and almost 50. Most people had kids earlier than me and my kid is about to graduate.

The ass end 😆 I guess we could go find the actual mixture if it really mattered.

Yep. I'm a Xennial and could easily have grandkids like many in the small town I grew up in do. My millennial step-sister /is/ a grandparent (though she started young).

It's really hard to take you seriously when you can't spell millennial correctly, even with spell check and autocorrect.
