"Yes. I don't think core inclinations and motivations change that much in a generation. What changes is the environment and culture, what kids are exposed to. And they will legitimately react against the "excesses" of thier parents. Our parents rebelled against the frugalness-- born from the depression -- of their parents by focussing on "making it" nice houses and big cars. Boomers rebelled against the shallowness and corporate-nature of their parents. GenX rebelled against the chaos, serial marriages, disorientation of many of thier parents. And are career focussed, women seem to take their husbands name a lot more -- having grown up with hyphenated names on steroids. (All of thes view are groos generalizations. Assume I am referring to 40-50% or each cohort. Many splinter segments of each cohort could be characterized differently). So on the surface, each genration seems different. But I sugget its the same core inclinations, motivations and inner spirt reacting to different environments." Good analysis; so, it's all just a Yin/Yang thang... R.G.
