[quote=Anonymous]I am a 32 year old so don't think I have knowledge of the mid-life stuff... But honestly I feel like I relate a little to OP. But to me, the changes I don't get are societal. I feel there is such a breakdown of what to expect from family, community, the public. My parents turned wacko. Not there for their kids. Their politics and religion are more important than basic family care. I hear about this kind of thing all around America. Family cohesion seems to have evaporated for a lot of us - some sort of tribalism of like minds seems to have taken its place. Love my community in DC so honestly no issues with that. But then the public - so many areas and regions of people so uncaring for the greater good - no I have no idea what to expect from them and that in turn makes me feel like I can't exactly know what to expect for myself and my children in the coming decades. I feel like flexibility and skill-training, adaptability, is key to feeling steady in this seemingly increasingly shaky world.[/quote]
