[quote=Anonymous]I am a Gen X parent and going to bed without dinner is cruel. I haven't actually noticed that much of a difference - everyone I've talked to bemoans participation trophies, for example. The biggest difference I've noticed is that millennial parents spend a lot more money than we do. Maybe they earn more, I have no idea, but I was taught to be frugal and my parents are currently reaping the rewards of their earlier frugality, so I don't intend to change that mindset. It does mean that my kids get envious of their friends' fancy vacations, ask why we don't have nice cars, etc.[/quote]
