We all know what a generation is, but can you define it exactly? For example, four friends at a table. One born in 1952, another born in 1963, the third born in 1971 and the fourth born in 1985.
How many generations d you see here? Surely there must be an overlap here somewhere. You could hardly say that the 1952 person is from the same generation as the one born in 1985, whereas the person in 1971 could arguably say she is in the same generation as the person from 1964, and also as the one from 1985. Or am I missing something here?
Your views and comments are all welcome.
thanks.
