"What the Boomers as a generation missed (there were, of
course and thankfully, many honorable individual exceptions)
was the core set of values that every generation must
discover to make a successful transition to real adulthood:
maturity. Collectively the Boomers continued to follow
ideals they associated with youth and individualism:
fulfillment and “creativity” rather than endurance and
commitment."
Walter Russell Mead suggests the younger generations may be
thinking unkind thoughts about us boomers. Full essay here.
