Saying originally coined by girl duo Chloe x Halle. It means that no matter how crazy the world is right now (currently: riots, global warming, racial tensions etc), the current generation will be able to face them and adults should stop worrying about them.

Example:
Person 1: when I see everything that’s going on in the world, Global warming, police brutality, covid 19... i just feel bad for Generation Z.

Person 2: the kids are alright. They’re strong and determined to make the world a better place: i believe in them.
