I was a . student in clinical psychology at Berkeley. She was a 26yearold woman named Alex. Now Alex walked into her first session wearing jeans and a big slouchy top, and she dropped onto the couch in my office and kicked off her flats and told me she was there to talk about guy problems. Now when I heard this, I was so relieved. My classmate got an arsonist for her first client. (Laughter) And I got a twentysomething who wanted to talk about boys. This I thought I could handle. But I didnamp。39。t handle it. With the funny stories that Alex would bring to session, it was easy for me just to nod my head while we kicked the can down the road. amp。quot。Thirtyamp。39。s the new 20,amp。quot。 Alex would say, and as far as I could tell, she was right. Work happened later, marriage happened later, kids happened later, even death happened later. Twentysomethings like Alex and I had nothing but time. But before long, my supervisor pushed me to push Alex about her love life. I pushed back. I said, amp。quot。Sure, sheamp。39。s dating down, sheamp。39。s sleeping with a knucklehead, but itamp。39。s not like sheamp。39。s going to marry the guy.amp。quot。 And then my supervisor said, amp。quot。Not yet, but she might marry the next one. Besides, the best time to work on Alexamp。39。s marriage is before she has one.amp。quot。 Thatamp。39。s what psychologists call an amp。quot。Aha!amp。quot。 moment. That was the moment I realized, 30 is not the new 20. Yes, people settle down later than they used to, but that didnamp。39。t make Alexamp。39。s 20s a developmental downtime. That made Alexamp。39。s 20s a developmental sweet spot, and we were sitting there blowing it. That was when I realized that this sort of benign neglect was a real problem, and it had real consequences, not just for Alex and her love life but for the careers and the families and the futures of twentysomethings everywhere. There are 50 million twentysomethings in the United States right now. Weamp。39。re talking about 15 percent of the population, or 100 percent if you consider that no oneamp。39。s getting through adulthood without going through their 20s first. Raise your hand if youamp。39。re in your 20s. I really want to see some twentysomethings here. Oh, yay! Yamp。39。allamp。39。s awesome. If you work with twentysomethings, you love a twentysomething, youamp。39。re losing sleep over twentysomethings, I want to see 。 Okay. Awesome, twentyso
