...The baby boomers were much less likely than their predecessors to describe their health as "excellent" or "very good,"

I think boomers have higher expectations. Things start to break down as we age and we will not accept that in the same way that our parents did. We complain more.

Now that’s very true. Hollywood, TV advertising, magazines, etc. have probably given us unrealistic expectations of how we should feel at “such and such” an age.

"We complain more."

Not here......we TAKE action.....course we weren't your "typical" boomers.....if there is such a thing.
