The Teacup Generation typically refers to many of the children of Generation Xers. Teacup is a slang term for someone who is fragile or lacks resiliency. It generally is only a reference towards actions and attitude, and not physiology. Further the term China (a reference to Fine China dinnerware) is used to refer to those raised by teacups, and denotes a greater fragility and lack of resilience beyond teacup.
Quotes
The great conservative President of the United States Theodore Roosevelt remarked a century ago that our society was perfecting its "cult of nonvirility" with "untried men who lived at ease."
"Over-sentimentality, over-softness, in fact washiness and mushiness are the great dangers of this age and of this people. Unless we keep the barbarian virtue, gaining the civilized ones will be of little avail." — Theodore Roosevelt
