The Challenges Faced by Generation Z
Generation Z navigates a landscape shaped by significant social and economic challenges that are often misunderstood by their elders. Members of this generation confront hurdles such as skyrocketing education costs, wage stagnation, and limited job opportunities exacerbated by job competition from both domestic and foreign labor. Many Zoomers face disappointing prospects, where higher education creates debt rather than opportunity, and the expectation of attaining a stable middle-class life through traditional means has become increasingly unrealistic. The environment in which they are raised, including high rates of broken families and a decline in foundational social institutions, has further complicated their ability to form healthy relationships and secure a prosperous future.
