[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Canceling of elders simply did not exist. Not inviting grandparents for Christmas so we can have our nuclear family celebration was unheard of. Grandparents were considered a valuable part of the family and were welcomed at all holidays. The grandparents of yesteryears hosted many of the holidays.[/quote] This is such BS. Rude grandparents were not invited to Christmas 50 years ago either. Boomers have this weird view that all grandparents before them were revered, put on a pedestal and the tushy kissing never ended. It was pure bliss for the grandparents who were pampered by obedient, reverent children and now it should be their turn! It’s so bizarre because most of the boomers we know in our family or as kids growing up did squat for their parents yet expect a ridiculous amount of bending over backward to make as many holidays and vacations all about them.
