[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents are boomers and represent the worst behaviors of the generation.  They forget birthdays, drive expensive cars, have no time to watch or help is out with the grandkids, didn't pay for college or weddings for their kids though it was well within their means.  It was all about teaching responsibility so they say- but it was really about them having more money to buy unimportant things.

They both came from families who provided all these things to them including  grandparents who helped their grandchildren with these things.

The best part is that now that I am an adult, I should drop everything to rush and see them when they have surgery.  I should take/pick them up from the airport for a three day vacation.  I should watch their pets while they are gone.  My husband should be available to fix things for them or get them out of whatever jam they are in.

And they wonder why I am so cold towards them.
