My husband and I are millennials (32 years old) but we see a LOT of our generation moving toward more traditional values (who were previously more progressive) as well as our gen Z friends & mentees. It’s encouraging to see!
I'm also a late 80s Millennial born in 89. I agree with you and I'm glad to see more Millennials, Generation Zs and Generation Alphas friends moving towards traditional family values. I'm gonna be 35 at the end of this month.
@@mjsteward5508There’s no evidence that the younger generations are moving more towards family values. Marriage and fertility rates are at all-time lows in this country.
Gen z here. No you are wrong they are not moving towards God or tradition. They are getting their info from Andrew tate or people similar and neither promote traditional values.
Me and my wife are Gen Zs born in 2000 and we're glad to be switched from pro baby killing to being pro family values because we had our son the day before New Year's Eve 2023. Thank you Lila, you're videos are awesome and God bless you.
I obviously can't speak for everyone in my generation (gen Z, born in '99), but the impetus for me trending for conservative and "traditional" is partly because I look at the older generations that swallowed new-aged Atheism hook, line, and sinker (Millennials, Gen X), and get the sense that they're bloody miserable 😵💫
(Millennial, born in 1989) I'm glad to see the younger generation which is the Gen Zs and Gen Alphas doing better for themselves. You forgot to mention the Baby Boomers because they raised the Gen X culture. I agree with your post. I was super liberal but I'm more conservative and neutral because I look at things from both sides instead of one sided.
There is a lot of trauma and resentment between Boomers and Gen X. Boomers are the pinnacle virtue signalers, devoted to the establishment, and don't practice any of what they like to preach. They got married to avoid the draft, got divorced afterwards and abandoned Gen X to the streets. Stranger Things isn't hyperbole, they were not pnly absentee parents, but resentful. When Gen X tried to sing the blues, Boomers resorted to censorship. The news literally had to say every night "It's 10pm, do you know where your children are?" While our freedom was fun, the fact is we felt completely abandoned. And turned against every establishment. The fact is Boomers are narcisstic because they were ptsd from both WW2 and Vietnam. This is you get secessive generations that are ideologically opposed. Gen X swore to not be the Boomers. They became pro freedom of speech (Gen X spends the most time in Twitter jail) pro family. Much lower divorce rates and involved parenting. Admittedly, it was overkill. But we had nothing to go on. So if Boomers were hypocritical corporate hippies, Gen X swung to the right. I swear you can see this division in my house. I hope this trend continues because this is precisely what Gen X set out to do is stop the generational trauma. We may have gone about things the wrong way but we had to figure out everything for ourselves . We even had to teach ourselves to breastfeed.
Gen z wife and mom of three here 🥳 Our traditional Catholic community in the area we live has BOOMED the last 5 years. Like many many young families with 5+ children. The other side isn't having children anywhere close to this rate 👀
5+ children? That would doom you here in Western Europe. I don't think I could even afford the space needed, not to even speak about everything else. Wow!!
@@NoctLightCloudIn regional Australia I see many families of 4-6 kids living in very small three bedroom houses. Our grandparents did it in the 1950s afterall.
@@grannyannie2948 yeah? In an appartment with 50sqm and no garden nor balcony? Cause that's how us 3kids + parents lived💀 Affordable land is the most crucial thing for having many kids.
@@NoctLightCloud So you would prefer your parents didn't make that sacrifice so you could be here? These houses are less than sixty square metres, though they do have a bit of garden. Their are families in smaller flats though, but the town is full of playgrounds for kids who don't have gardens. Even pubs have playgrounds so parents can enjoy a meal.
Millennials, Generation Zs and Generation Alphas, we can related because we grew up in the toxic culture and I'm glad to see our generation going back to traditional family values. Any Millennials in the comments from 1982-1995?? Proud late 80s Millennial in the house.
As a millennial (1986 baby!) I’m hoping and praying this next generation rises up and learns from previous generations on mistakes made. A godless Society has gotten us nowhere. Traditional values work and we naturally gravitate towards it. Women want to be with strong MEN and men want to be with WOMEN that are nurturing (someone they could see raise their children) we’ve gotten so far from these things the pendulum will swing eventually. We are starting to see revival and many people including celebrities turn to God, kat von D, Russell Brand, daddy yankee and many others. We must continue to pray that the scales fall off peoples eyes and they find God! ❤🙏
god and religion has not got this world anything but being controlled or killed in masses by the rich. all god and religion is is a form of control. if you believe in something great thats on you but dont force society as a whole to believe in god or they are less than because they dont. im so glad more and more people are deconstructing and stepping away from organized religion. all it has done is destroy peoples lives. this episode is so misleading.
I give tours on my college campus and I have seen more and more young people interested in being in a church group on campus. Its very encouraging to see. I believe Gen Z will be the revival generation. God has a plan 🙏🏻🙌🏻
Excited for this episode. Just started listening but anecdotally, my husband and I are younger millenials and we converted to Orthodox Christianity even though we started our teenage years as libertarian atheist completely content in that but what we saw together in our college years and then also after moving to a city for work had us searching for more. Our church has in the last few years since we joined seen tons of growth; there have been several young families like ours who converted soon after us (before us there was only one) and there is a pretty large group of gen z young men and a few women inquirers/catechumens/recent converts.
Great interview! Mainstream media will have us believe the worst of each generation and society as a whole. Thank you, Isabela, for being an inspiration and beacon of hope to search for the truth and learn how to defend it!
I can’t believe I’m saying this…I really can’t but…PRAISE THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. I have hope for our generation. May the truth be revealed and healing begin! I just want us all to heal. It’s time ❤️
I’ve observed that when people are younger, they tend to learn more liberal because they have a lot of ideas of what the world SHOULD be, given their young minds and creativity. As millennials get older, and it’ll be a similar pattern for Gen Z, we begin to experience more realities of life and understand the value of traditional values and why adults put them in place. Now that I turned 28 with my own family, I favor more traditional and conservative values as a way to give structure and balance for my new baby. But I can tell you, I was veryyyy liberal as a teenager to my early 20s.
I once someone describe the duality is conservatives are there to catch the leftists when they fall off the tightrope. lol Like how the house will pass all these crazy social policies and want lists and it's the Senates job to put the breaks on it.
I'm a younger millenial (29) with traditional values and a traditional household. I feel as though we are in the minority and that I am very looked down upon, especially by Gen Z, for having a degree and still deciding to have kids young and stay home for years. This channel and this video are SO encouraging. I wish my generation could get back to what matters- family. Leaving behind a legacy. No career will ever be as satisfying as raising your own children and being a loving wife to a man that provides and protects.
Thank you for being a light in the world, Lila. Prayed for you and your family, especially your beautiful baby in my Rosary this morning! Matthew 5:14-16 You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and then put it under a bushel basket; it is set on a lampstand, where it gives light to all in the house. Just so, your light must shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your heavenly Father.
The winds of youth blow hard and change directions often. As a Catholic convert in his 20s, we'll see where my generation is in 10, 20, or 30 years and whether or not our generational desire for tradition is sincere or just a fad.
What a wonderful interview! I think I saw Isabel was in PWA but didn’t get a chance to watch it yet. This is my first time hearing her story! I think she is so underrated (for now). Wishing Isabel the best and excited to see the fruits of her work.
Nobody chooses traditional values because they are sexy or exciting. There is only one reason to choose traditional values: they work. They are the only values that work.
Omg, I had the same experience with my science classes. I received my BS in human biology and MS in physiology and had multiple tests ask me to claim (or be marked wrong, which I was) that God did not create the world. It was insane.
I see this happening in my own life. I'm a millennial and i've gone from the stereotypical career focused Boss Babe who didn't want children and went to a Lean In Merting every week, to being at home with 2 children and planning a third. I even enjoy cleaning and packing my husband's lunch! The me of 10 years ago would not recognize me today.
My husband and I are Gen Xers and started late having babies (started when I was 35 and my husband was 36). We just grew up in a different world than what our kids got. We actually didn't have internet until college and didn't get smart phones until we were in our early 30's. Once we realized how rotten the public schools were we pulled our kids out right away. We also saw the poisoning of youth with the insane CDC schedule and we're rejecting pharma. Too much change too fast and starting parenthood late in life will shock you when you see how dramatically it has all changed. I can't wait for the pendulum to swing on the screens too. Too many young mothers who grew up with screens don't even see the harms that giving kids phones at such a young age.
The biggest thing every other generation forgets about Gen X is that WE (born in 1974), were the last generation who saw the world before social media corrupted it, we were also the last generation who had to figure out life on our own!
Hope you and your family are well, Lila! Thank you for sharing that when babies' hearts are beating in the first trimester, babies are about the size of a coffee bean, and at seven weeks, is when the heart can be detected. I like the SevenWeeksCoffee "Heartbeat club" name! Hoping more politicians focus on the "heartbeat". I think it would help bring to mind innocent child's life in the womb. When Mother Mary was pregnant with Jesus, she went on an about eighty mile joyous journey to visit her cousin Saint Elizabeth (patron saint of expectant mothers and pregnant women) in her hour of need, Elizabeth said referencing her tiny child in her womb John the Baptist who was conceived when she was in old age: Luke 1:41-44 When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, “Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
Exactly, I’m sure a similar percentage of millennials said that they wanted to get married too. I’m Gen Z and I’m almost positive that my generation will have the lowest marriage and fertility rates of any generation in recent history.
I enjoyed the discussion and am impressed by Isabel’s accomplishments as a young woman. Just a small critique for her - slow down in interviews. Her talking points felt scripted and fast.
“To chase something bigger…” “Faith” There’s so much talking around faith in Jesus. The increase in people saying they believe in God isn’t a good thing. Jesus is God. We have to be clear that not all beliefs are the same. We also have to stick to the Bible and go after a truly biblically, surrendered lifestyle, which is so much more than joining a church.
Clicked on this video just to say one thing. Genz MEN areoving yowards traditionalism and the women are going even further left. Sorry i ruined the click bait but i still think it counts as a view so youre welcome
Because the ones who are a mess are the loudest. You don’t usually hear about those living quiet, faithful lives, though that’s most of us. I’m Gen Z and about 80% of my graduating class is married with kids living normal lives. Most of whom have steady careers and have some sort of religious faith. There’s about 10% who are unmarried but living normal productive lives. But the 5-10% of my class that fell for the woke BS are living very loud, disastrous lives.
Me and my husband are Generation Zs (24 years old) and we're happy that some of our generation are moving towards traditional family values, we're happy that giving our life to Christ was awesome. Giving my life to Christ on my 17th birthday was awesome. We grew up in the toxic culture and we want our childrens when they get older to be homeschool because in schools, they teaching ungodly stuffs in there. God bless you sister Lila, I'm so happy to be pregnant with our child on the way.
Homeschooling is unusual and difficult in my region of Australia. But parents are upset about things like gender theory in schools. The solution is private Christian schools. So I see many atheist parents raising very Christian children
Technically Gen Z mother here, age 26 (born October 1997), I’d argue that the 97-03ish babies are our own epoch within Gen Z because we remember our childhoods before the explosion of the iPhone and social media. As a Catholic, I know tons of Gen Z Catholic families already on their 2nd or 3rd child on the way. And we’re 26 or younger. There’s hope.
Raising my kids conservatively. After watching my GenX and Millennial counterparts ruin their lives, the narrow path is the one I want to instill in my children (the next gen).
Ok ladies. My son is 28. Washboard stomach. Virgin. No booze. No drugs. Homestead farm. Three businesses. And a real man. Meaning after marriage he wants a WIFE
This interview is a joke lol. She is making up a lot of stuff about Gen Z's accomplishments and virtues that simply aren't backed up by statistics or the personal experiences of many people today. She is simply just tooting her own horn because she has a superiority complex and is so badly obsessed with proving how her generation is better than Millennials. This is useless commentary from someone who is extremely biased and has an agenda to push instead of clarifying things. What a waste.
1. Great topic, 2. Have either of you read the book titled Genereations?, 3. All the Gen Z people I meet want to marry but after they turn 30 years old because they want to first enjoy life. What is your understanding?
Gen Z is actually getting married younger and more than millennials at the same age. Millennials had that mentality of getting married after 30, that’s quickly dying out in Gen Z. I graduated high school in 2019 and I’d say probably about 75% of my graduating class is married.
@@mckennarussell4510 That's statistically untrue. Gen Z has the lowest marriage rate of any generation in recent history. I also graduated high school in 2019, and no one in my graduating class is married.
As a fellow geriatric gen z, I’m so glad I grew up in a home with a religious background but also with open minded parents. I’m also glad they trusted me and let me make decisions and mistakes. Now I’m happily married and will be trying for kids soon. I’m definitely conservative, being pro life, pro homemaker, and pro homeschool
