Bingo. Yet another example of an age effect being attributed to a generational difference. I’m so tired of these horoscope-like characterizations of people
Comment on Can anyone explain why?

Most Gen Z-ers can’t legally buy alcohol yet.
And illegal consumption doesn’t make it into the statistic.

Isn’t the legal drinking age in the US 35 or something like that?

57 actually. That’s why the numbers are so high for boomers and Gen x, we have to get them to buy the booze for us.

What about the youngest? I never know where cut off is.

I thought the cutoff was 2010, but apparently it’s 2012, so the youngest are 14. Each generation spans about 15 years.
