The Timeline:
- 2009 Birth: Someone born in 2009 wouldn't reach the age of 3 until 2012.
- Childhood Years: Their core childhood years would primarily fall within the 2010s.
-
Generational Association: The experiences, trends, and cultural influences they encountered during their formative years would be heavily influenced by the 2010s. Therefore, 2009 babies would have a stronger association with 2010s culture.
