My Boomer Tips
Why is the age range so wide for the "Baby Boom" Generation. According to the range 1945-1964 I am a boomer, and so are my parents. I've always thought of age gaps in 10 year increments, not really 20. Do you think that who ever labels these "generations" sets the time frame arbitratirly? Do you fit your generations' traits?
P.S. Any "cracks" about my being old will be met with an instant blast of electricity to your key board causing your fingers to burn and your screen to burst into flames. 
(You've been warned! lol).
Thanks for the correction 1344, you're right. My Mom had me when she was 17 years old...I feel like I straddle the Boomer and the GenX (isn't that the next one) generation
It’s actually ’46 – ’64. A span of 18 years. You would have to have been born in ’46 and then had a child by age 18 to be a boomer with a boomer child. I’m sure this is an exception more than a rule.
Generations are defined more by the change or movement they cause rather than a set number of years.
I am a boomer, through and through.
