Isn’t it funny we hear little about Gen X?

They spent their whole lives in shadow of the Boomers.

It’s like they don’t even exist.

It’s funny how many people are considered Baby Boomers. Hillary and President Trump are, and so am I, although I’m only 57 years old.

Sandwiched between two massively large generations, there weren't as many of us.

But we invented all the cool stuff the Millennials are using.

That’s cause they’re in the “sandwich years.”

Sandwiched between working, raising kids, and caring for aging parents.

Not a whole lot of time for leisure or hanging out with your buds.

The boomers did a number on Gen X. The boomers had the WW2 gen/silent gen as parents. Then the boomers decide they know better how to do damn near everything. They mostly raised their own children different from how they were raised and screwed it up good. They also rejected traditional values in regards to marriage/divorce. And they disturbed the natural roles between men and women, without adequately explaining to their kids what they did and how that will affect them.

Can you tell I have boomer parents? LOL.
