[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom was born during WW II and she’s the exact same way. Her mother really pitched in ands helped with us as kids a lot. I think it’s a personality thing. My grandma was extroverted and helpful. She raised a daughter who’s introverted and selfish. Perhaps she coddled my mom too much and created a person who wants everyone to do for her instead of paying all the help forward. [/quote] Yup. We boomers cherished our kids and gave our all to do our best raising them. And the smack talk is what we get from some of you. Don't have kids when you're in your 40s and your parents are in their late 60s to 70s. They're exhausted. My boomer friend was the default parent for her oops grandchild when her child got pregnant in college. She did everything in her power to make sure her kid didn't need to drop out of college. My friend was in her late 40s. It's still possible up to the early 60s but after that it gets harder due to a drop in energy levels.[/quote]
