- People born before 1946 were called The Silent generation…
- People born between 1946 and 1964 are called The Baby Boomers.
- People born between 1965 and 1979 are called Generation.
- And people born between 1980 and 2010 are called Generation Y.

- Y should I wash and iron my own clothes?
- Y should I buy any food?
