Do you think boomers are secretly jealous that millennials are better parents?

This is not a pill for people with excellent boomer parents

I think they’d be as jealous as a millennial would be of them tbh

What makes one generation better than the other? Genuinely curious.

I think they think they are better parents. I hate boomers though lol.

@Amy literally nothing. But media outlets love to pit generations against each other, especially old against the young, typically youth being blamed for most societal problems since they started printing newspapers. I think it appeals to people as they get older to think they're better than the youth due to their experience but it's really divisive and now with social media I think it's reached a horrible extent where there is no solidarity between generations. The generation older than boomers (78+) is so chill now, but maybe they were more judgy when they were at the age that boomers now are (59-77). Gen X (directly younger than boomers) also seems very chill by comparison to boomers I know.

@Alex oh okay. I don’t keep up with much of that lol I be in my own little world haha

Nope I think they think they’re better which is probably why they are often known for giving unsolicited advice

I don't think you can compare really, times are different, advice given from professionals is different

I don't think I'm a better parent than my baby boomer mom

Millennials have normalized exploiting children for money online. We aren’t better parents we are just different parents with a ton more access to information.
