I’m Gen X, and we basically did all we could to separate ourselves from adults whenever possible, and it was not generally for a good reason. But man, I feel sorry for them in a way, because what will the memories of their teenage years be like?

Gen-X as well. I don't have a single AWESOME memory from m teenage years that included my parents.

All my great memories were with my friends at places where our parents were nowhere to be found.

I’m sure my kid thinks I’m a dork too despite the machine guns and whitewater rafting...
