This article needs references to the tacit "shared value" that a "life script" exists and that one must follow these prescribed steps within a prescribed timeframe to be esteemed as "successful" by society:
- Graduate high school
- Graduate college
- Start a career
- Get married
- Buy a house
- Have kids
- (your kids go to step 1)
- Retire
- Die
By design, none of these steps prioritizes creativity. See also: socialization and ritual. 71.162.255.58 07:46, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
And any source for this sweeping (and sweepingly dismissive) "life script"? 213.233.144.71 (talk) 08:58, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
Article needs to be forked
[edit]The cusper archetype is wholy unrelated to the slacker/twixter one. As a cusper (and proudly not a twixter), I suggest a new article be formed.
Young adults at 12? 12 y.o.'s should still be dependent on their parents (guardians). And 29 seems too old... 17-25? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.114.68.47 (talk) 01:29, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Historic perspective
[edit]If anything, living with parents until marriage has been the historical norm, rather than what is suggested in the article as it stands.

[edit]Someone subtly vandalized this page. I'll fix tomorrow and remove this section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.97.221.98 (talk) 20:58, 18 November 2013 (UTC) Rather humorous vandalism though, I have to admit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.97.221.98 (talk) 21:08, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
