view when it comes to Gen Z. “The View’s” Joy Behar is slamming Gen Z after a report revealed that many of those born between 1997 and 2012 felt “left behind” by the current economy.

The comment from Behar, 81, came after co-host Whoopi Goldberg cited a social media thread that seemed to indicate that Gen Z was worried about losing “value as they age” and that they will have “nothing to look forward to other than wrinkles, aging and death.”“Every single thing you see is anti-aging, don’t actually look the way that you are,” co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin agreed. “No one’s actually body positive.“They are not hitting the milestones the way every generation before them did,” added Griffin, 34. “They’re owning homes at a lower rate, this is wild.

Forty-five percent of people between 18 to 29 still live with their parents.“They feel left behind by the economy, and they also see everybody trying to not age.” Though Griffin’s comments were backed by fellow co-hosts Sara Haines, 46, and Sunny Hostin, Behar was left unmoved.“Oh please, get a job,” Behar said dismissively. “There’s a million job openings in this country.

Get a job.”Several of Behar’s colleagues, however, disagreed.Hostin, 55, chimed in that she is currently raising two Gen Z children who have had to grow up in “the worst of times,” referring to the COVID-19 pandemic.
