Meh, I'm in my 40s and have a young kid, and my parents were hippie-adjacent. Some people breed faster; generations are a horrible measure of time.

The point really is that most folks having children are younger: You aren't, and you still aren't the hippie generation.

Generations are a horrible measure of time, to an extent, but they do bind people together with events and movements at times and I'm pretty sure this is one of those. Plus, I'm not sure what would take their place that is actually better.
