[quote=Anonymous]Oh man, I am dying at the idea of this being shared in the boomer newsletter. I have similar requests coming at me right now and I think it's fueled in part by the boomers feeling like they "lost" a couple of years with kids/grandkids during the pandemic and desperate to make them up now. But those years were also ones of aging all around, so they are less in touch with what is reasonable/realistic than they used to be (and maybe more narcissistic and less capable). At the same time, every parent with kids at home has literally been hanging on by a thread for going on three years and we cannot handle one more demand on us, one more contingency, one more expression of need. It's all coming to a head around these damn holiday expectations.[/quote]
