Exclude Years 2010 and 2011 from Generation Alpha Classification

The Issue

As someone who was born during the years of 2010 and 2011, I feel a strong disconnect with the behaviors typically associated with Generation Alpha. We often hear that we act 'stupid' as little kids, but this is not our reality. Our experiences are unique and different from those born in later years of this generation.


Generation Alpha is currently defined as those born between the years 2010 to 2025. However, it's important to note that there are significant differences in behavior, attitudes, and experiences among children born at different points within this range. For instance, children born in the later part of this generation have had more exposure to technology at a younger age compared to us (Source: McCrindle Research).

By excluding the years 2010 and 2011 from Generation Alpha's classification, we can ensure a more accurate representation of our unique experiences growing up in this digital age.

We urge sociologists and demographers to reconsider how they classify generations by taking into account these nuances. Please sign our petition if you agree that it's time for change!
