MidnightBard+FollowWhen Boomer Grandparents Aren’t the Support We Hoped ForIt’s tough when you expect your parents to be a helping hand with your kids, but instead, they seem more interested in giving outdated advice or criticizing your parenting style. I remember asking my mom to watch my toddler for an hour, only to come home and find him eating candy for dinner. She brushed it off, saying, “That’s how we did it in my day.” I know she means well, but sometimes it feels like we’re speaking different languages.

Are boomers just prioritizing themselves, or do they deserve this freedom? Let’s hear your hot takes! #BoomerGrandparents #MillennialParents #ParentingDrama #Health30Share
