[quote=Anonymous]I’ve often heard (and seen) that parents today are much more involved in kids’ lives than parents in the 70s and 80s. I wonder if part of it is because the childhoods of gen x and millennials are not all that different from the childhoods of kids these days. In contrast, the childhood of my boomer parents was sooooo different from my 1980s childhood. I know there’s social media now, but that isn’t such a huge leap from the mindset of the 1980s. Whereas there just seems to be a bigger leap from 1950s childhood to 1980s childhood. This thought just occurred to me as I’m watching my kids watch my little pony, which seems very similar to cartoons of my 1980s youth. [/quote]
