https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Participation_trophy#:~:text=One%20of%20the%20earliest%20known,a%20high%20school%20basketball%20tournament.
Participation trophies started in the mid 80 and got big in the 90s. Boomer parents.
The kids know the participation trophy means you lost. The stupid trophies were for the parents.
Gen x'ers weren't born in the 80s. The older ones were born in the 60s and starting to have kids in the 80s. I'll absolutely agree there is going to be some overlap but this is mostly a gen x response to being beaten and shit on by boomers.
