Me being part of the Generation Y I can tell you is this a correct assumption I can vouch and say that I personally politically affiliated and like to view and see many political stands and issues since I live in this country I would love to know what is happening around me. I can also say that I believe in a god but am not religiously affiliated. I do agree with the fact that we do have the highest amount of Facebook friends even though 60%-90% of those friends we do not know in person. I have personally posted a selfie but only as profile photos. I have personally not sexted or have been sexted. I do send a medium of 50 texts a day. I do believe in trust and I do have trust in some people but I have a motto break my trust and I will no longer believe anything you say. I do find it interesting and also believe that we have a huge number of Millennial’s. I do believe we are the last generation born in the 20^th century and I’m proud of it. I do believe in that fact that 20% of us have at least one immigrant parent but I have 2 who are now permanent residents and have worked hard their whole life to support their children with only a 3 grade education and no English they were able to put their kids through school and college all while working 10 hour shifts in the hot sun and cold mornings picking grapes, oranges, watermelons, and other labor intensive jobs. So I’m vary proud to be a millennial not only that, but I’m proud to be a First Generation Mexican American millennial.
