Suicide was viewed by 30 percent of Generation Z in the United Kingdom as being justifiable, compared with just 12 percent of the Pre-War generation. Although attitudes toward suicide were heavily associated with age, Gen Z was still something of an outlier, being 10 percent more supportive than the next-youngest generation, the Millennials.
