Parenting time is up 20-fold (few hours/week->24/7adulting) from my parents generation (silent gen). Consequently, compared to my parents, I (gen x) had 20x the control over my what my kids were exposed to. Parenting was exhausting for me. My kids spent their entire childhood in adult-populated, adult-curated boxes. They were denied the regular hours of adult-free, free-range time, where I developed my most of my life skills. But as a parent, I had pretty exclusive control over what my 5 sons were exposed to.
