Also your parents have to not suck. My ‘greatest generation’ grandmother took care of me a lot when I was a kid, and my children’s two boomer grandmothers really can’t be bothered. Yet another anti-boomer trope, but so real in my life.
- jasonwatkinspdx 5y agoI don't have kids, but my parents treat my brother's kids like plague rats to be avoided. It's very sad because the kids love them but the ship sailed on changing who my parents are now a long time ago. I wish more people that pull out the moralizing "everyone should just" would understand that just maybe the rest of us don't have a life that looks like theirs, and not for reasons under our control.
