Almost a lifetime later after 9/11/01, I can’t help but wonder what kids think about what happened at the turn of the century.

I hate to say it but I've met kids born after 2000 and it ain't pretty. They barely know what life was like ten years ago let alone 20 years ago.
And knowing how history classes were taught between like 1998 and 2011, I don't have much hope for this generation because it's surely gotten worse plus now they're obsessed with TikTok lol.
But then again I'm sure people born in the 70s said the same about us born in the 90s.
