Economic, labor and social factors are the main reasons why so-called millennials may have a less happy adulthood than their parents, at least as revealed by a recent study carried out in the United Kingdom.
As shared by CNN through its online site, research by the British organization Health Foundation ensures that generation Y will be the first to be less happy and healthy than their parents.
Some of the revealing details of the study, which included surveys of 2,000 people between the ages of 22 and 26, revealed that the "precariousness and instability of life that young people face [today]" will have serious consequences for their future. "Young people will reach half of their lives without the fundamentals of what it takes to have a healthy adulthood," the report added.
Among these fundamental pieces that research assures are lacking in the lives of millennials, the difficulty that young people are having in order to have their own home is mentioned, since the real estate market seems less and less accessible to generations to come.
Another determining factor that the study would have found is job instability. More than 50% of survey participants confessed to having trouble finding jobs where wages are fair and where there are also opportunities to advance their careers.
Jo Bibby, director of the organization in charge of the investigation, assured that the results show that young people do not have the due support to have a smooth transition to adulthood. “This support is vital to ensure they have the necessary foundation for a healthy future. Without this support, we are putting their future and health at risk,”she said.
