Would you say a girl born in 1997 and a guy born in 1992 are from the same generation?

Yes and no. Age wise yes they are because of the time frame but mentality, growing up and nostalgia wise would be no. The one born in 92 would have a large portion of their childhood experienced in the 90’s were as the one born in 97 would have more of their childhood experiences in the 2000’s.

Yes. A generation is about 25 years, so anything less than 12 years is the arguably the same generation, five years is nothing.

Yes they're part of the same generation. (a generation is about 12-15 years). 5 years is a pretty small age gap

1997 was a good year because The Lost World: Jurassic Park came out then. Uhh yes because the first Jurassic Park movie came out the year after 92 so yes because I said so.

Yeah. For me, the generational line is remembering 9-11 and not.

[Asker]

But someone born in 1997 likely won't be able to remember 9/11

[Twalli]

Memory starts at 3. I know some people born in 1996 who have vivid memories of that day.
I don't remember the exact location I was when it happened since I was on a school bus to our city's art museum, but I remember everything else about that day.
