[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Somewhere along the generations, parents started lugging their kids everywhere. In the 20th century parents left kids with family and went to places like Hawaii on their own, lol. [/quote] I am a millennial, and maybe it's because we were just regular ole middle class, but I don't know anyone whose parents did this growing up. Now I see my peers doing this all the time! My parents used babysitters for date nights and adult-only events pretty regularly, but trips? Not a chance. [/quote] It's because people are getting married much later in life. My parents are baby boomers and when they got married in their 20s so did their friends. Nobody had kids yet so this wasn't a huge issue of not inviting every kid they knew. Their siblings were close in age and didn't have many kids yet either. Plus the weddings were local. Times have changed. But it's unrealistic that every wedding can include entire families.[/quote]
