This is so wrong at many levels. The reason why apps and companies are focussed in getting the 16-22 year olds are

1. They have very high power in changing their parents purchases.

2. Their word of mouth power is exponential compared to a guy who is 30 years old working in corporation.

3. 16-22 year olds are going to become 20-28 year olds in 4 years which is a real threat to facebook. This generation doesn't want to be part of Facebook.
