if you have a grandparent who was an adult in WWII you'd probably be in your 50s or 60s now. But looking at this person's profile they're clearly a kid who is obsessed with tanks. So I was gonna say gen z is cooked. then i was like wait a minute... then i took a look and can conclude gen z is cooked.

I'm 30 and my grandpa served in WW2, same with my 22 year old brother. My dad was the baby of the family and didn't start having kids until he was 30. I understand that i am th exception here, and not the rule though.

if we allow a late birth, someone 20 in 1940 could have a kid at 40 in 1960, who has a kid at 40 in 2000

This could be it, and age gaps with different sets of grandparents could make this even more plausible

I think people in their 50- 60s would have parents who fought in WWII. At least that's true for people I know.
