Who are silents? Boomers kids?
Silents are right before boomers. People born from 1928 to 1945. So people born right in the middle of pre-World War II and during the war itself. I would guess their children are mostly boomers and a few older Gen X. Boomers' kids are generally Gen X and some older millennials.
The Silent Generation is the parents of the Baby Boomers. So, roughly born from 1928 to 1945.
