Task: Consider the readings assigned in this class. Then, keep in mind those habits of previous generations that this generation may have abandoned or that may seem less important to this demographic group.
Examine patterns in housing, education, marriage and any other lifestyle benchmEnglisark that this generation, for better or worse, may reject in greater numbers compared to Gen X or the Baby Boomers.
For this essay, determine precisely why or how millennials and Gen Z might abandon the mores of previous generations for a different approach, a different way to embrace the path toward adulthood or the rejection of it.
Begin by developing a thesis statement that answers this question:
Is it smart for millennials to abandon a traditional path toward adulthood — independence, education, property ownership, marriage — for instead a less conventional one? Or is it irresponsible?
