I think the moment when the children of the 80's lost the conscious awareness of the "I don't wanna grow, because if I did, I wouldn't be a Toys R' Us kid" song, when you stopped seeing Toys R Us and screaming for your parents to take you there and when your parents stopped actively avoiding the street it was on so you wouldn't pass it and start the screaming--that's the moment the children of the 80's were ... something different I haven't put my finger on yet.
