大多数美国家长不认为孩子的未来生活会更好，这在历史上还是头一次。记者考特尼·马丁称，不必因此而担忧，而是将此视作一个机遇，定义新型工作方式和新型家庭，注重社区生活和创新能力。她在讲话中说道：“最危险的不是没法实现美国梦，而是去追寻一个连自己都不相信的梦。”这势必在全世界产生共鸣。

新美国梦

Many Americans no longer believe their children will be better off than they were, but this is prompting a powerful redefinition of what it means to live well. Instead of chasing bigger paychecks or houses, people are finding fulfillment through community, creativity, and shared lives. A record 50 million now live in intergenerational households, and research shows those with strong neighborly ties are the healthiest and happiest. True wealth, it turns out, is built on relationships, not possessions.
