you guys do realize that us GenXer's aren't really able to cruise into retirement because we're helping our kids and grandkids live, right? Having to help pay rent, clothes, groceries? I'm guessing I'll die before I'll ever be able to retire.

You’re validating me. Is this a trap?? You’re looking directly at us. Feels like danger 😂

Them: "You are so great with kids!"
Me, GenX: "Thanks, I raised my parent's kids."

Boom 💥 you hit it. They cared more about themselves than us. It's brutal.

I think many of them had children bc that’s just what was expected. It wasn’t bc they actually wanted kids.

I’m at the tail end of Gen X (1980) so I consider myself on the cusp but yeah, it sucked pretty much growing up in a blue haze of smoke because both my boomer parents didn’t think it was such a bad idea lol

I think our parents did the best they knew how, right or wrong. We were allowed to find our own way and I gotta say that shaped us. But Gen X did things differently. Thanks for noticing, we’re not used to that. Now you can let us just blend back into the shadows where we’re comfortable.

Dude we had a commercial that played every night and it literally said "it's 10pm do you know where you're kids are?" A nightly reminder to our parents to check on us like fr
