[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The younger generations have learned not to put up with the bad behavior of older generations that was allowed by society.

Respect your elders is dead to the younger generation.

Respect is earned. Disrespect is met with disrespect right back.

Frankly, as an elder Millennial who suffered through many years of Boomer abuse in customer service jobs, I love to see it.  [/quote]
Nah, it's the perception of boomer abuse, and likely what you think is abuse. Boomers actually were a very lenient generation compared to previous generations and that's how we got here. Very self absorbed  millennials and Gen Z. Can't WAIT  for their offspring to claim  their flag.  Lol. I already see that $#!÷÷ show. Go into the schools. [/quote]

My boomer MIL was sexually abusing my spouse. It wasn’t that lenient.[/quote]
Well, hate to tell you that this has nothing to do with Boomers. I certainly wouldn't characterize a whole generation of people based upon your criminal MIL.  There's people like that in every generation.  [/quote]

DP it has plenty to do with boomers— they were the last generation that allowed teachers, coaches, boy scout leaders to abuse their kids with no accountability/didn’t believe their kids when they reported. Once Gen X had kids they changed the cycle. It’s not the boomers fault per se, or not only their fault, because their parents did the same thing with them, but there is absolutely a generational shift when it comes to criminal behavior towards kids.
