Comment on Despite tech-savvy reputation, Gen Z falls behind in keyboard typing skills

I’m the oldest of Gen z (early 1990s). I have two younger siblings who are also Gen Z. Typing was a skill we learned in middleschool/ elementary. When I was about 8, we learned how to use google because it was considered a great resource to find information. By the time my middle sibling was in similar classes, they moved away from Google due to NSFW search results. When my youngest sibling was in school, they worried about shock sites.

  Besides boomers all generations are completely made up and have no hard set start and end dates.

Outside forces, like challenging their teaching?

They can still google dicks at home.

  It was more the dicks showing up in class unprompted. Then, it was people sharing links to shock sights. Now we have to worry people stealing information.

    Remember those two girls who only had one cup? I found out about them in class from a dick. It ended as expected. 🤮
