The 35-year-old senior marketer and mother Faith Hitchon has gone viral multiple times for her “trend reports” from her daughter India, who’s a Gen Alpha middle school student. In these videos, Hitchon reports from her daughter’s middle school pickup line and goes over what is currently “in” and “out” with the younger generation. It is, however, acceptable to do a heart, or if you really want to impress, you can do the middle finger big heart.” Hitchon also noted that the “coquette aesthetic” is really popular with her daughter’s peers, with headbands dubbed as one of the more chic accessories to wear. “Let these kids enjoy their fashion.” But some millennial parents took to the comment section to express that no matter how cringeworthy middle schoolers think skinny jeans or leggings are, they’d have to pry the styles out of their cold, dead hands.
