It's not like it has anything to do with...actual facts, peer-reviewed-studies or real science of any kind.
There were facts in the article regarding each era, then assumptions made about people who were raised in specific generations. I think most of us are aware it is not a scientific study and that's why we all have our own opinions about it. It's not factual, but food for thought. Nothing wrong with that if used in a positive manner to come to a better understanding of what makes different people think and act in certain ways. Sometimes it may be the case, and sometimes not, but nevertheless gives one some background on the differences of the time frames in which we were raised and how that might impact us.
