[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The latchkey generation is handsoff with child rearing? Ya don't say....[/quote] [b]Xers need to let this latchkey kid thing go.[/b] Do you think millennials suddenly had parents at home after school for some reason? No, ours were working too. We all ate bagel bites and watched trl unsupervised. Xers aren't special.[/quote] I think they think it makes them sound cool? [/quote] Genxer and former latchkey kid here.. It wasn't "cool", but it was definitely more acceptable for parents to leave younger kids home alone after school back then than today. [/quote] Interesting. Most everyone I was friends with had stay at home mothers except the single ones. Starting in middle school we were pretty much on our own, no communication from your sleepovers Friday until Sunday when you called for a pick up. [/quote]
