Then why, if the world sucks so bad, why bring kids into it? I don’t agree at all that life kind of sucks, my life is much better than the life my grandparents lived so I just try to put things into perspective. I am not and refuse to become a victim. Not sure how old you are but I am old enough to have witnessed and known the greatest generation and they would be absolutely appalled at our weakness. It’s a group think victim mentality we’ve all adopted. I try to teach my kids that you aren’t supposed to feel happy constantly, it’s perfectly normal to feel emotions, we need to teach coping skills. It’s okay to feel anxious and depressed after a major life change, it’s not a pathology that needs to be medicated necessarily.[/quote]

Such a boomer mentality. Income inequality is up. Global warming is unavoidable. Life expectancy is decreasing. I don’t expect my kids to have a better life than I did.

Also, many of the greatest generation had unchecked PTSD after the war.  Addressing and treating mental illnesses is not weakness. [/quote]
