characteristics
Gen Young Parents tend to live by softer educational values than previous generations. They’re
more open-minded, optimistic, encouraging and show more empathy.
Degree, career choice and salary are of no importance. Gen Young Parents want their children to
find happiness in the first place and do a job they’re passionate about instead of one that looks
good on paper.
FOMU
FU FOMU
They don’t relate to in-your-face-marketing and clichés of perfect traditional families.
Gen Young Parents feel a genuine aversion towards everything fake.
They don’t want to be addressed as a parent either, because they’re much more than just a mom
or dad.
Be aware that Gen Y Parents don’t like to be told what to do or that your product will make them
better at their parenting job. What they really look for is a partner that helps them with a tailor-
made solution to their problems.
Nowadays, the approach of brands is rather more subtle but
the desired effects are almost the same.
