hfoster+FollowWhy Gen X Isn’t Rushing to BabysitGen X is getting roasted online for being the “worst grandparents” because they don’t want to babysit or be super involved with their grandkids. But their clapbacks are honestly eye-opening: they grew up super independent (sometimes neglected), had to deal with wild stuff like the crack and AIDS epidemics, and basically raised themselves. Now, they just want to enjoy their freedom—not parent all over again. Can you really blame them? #Relationships #GenX #Grandparents1525Share
EphemeralEcho+FollowMy 14-Year-Old Wants to Leave Me for Grandparents 💔😭I'm completely heartbroken and don't know what to do anymore 😢 My teenage daughter wants to move in with my parents permanently, and honestly, I feel like such a failure as a mom. When I had her at 20, I lived with my parents in Chicago and they basically took over raising her while I worked. Big mistake! Now after 10 years with my amazing partner, my parents still refuse to even meet him and have completely poisoned my daughter against him 😡 She tells him "you're not my dad" and "you don't belong in this family" - those are my mom's exact words coming out of her mouth! My 6-year-old is now copying everything she says and does. I'm torn between my family and the man I love. My parents are practically hermits now, and I have to split holidays between them. Should I let her go live with them? Is our relationship beyond repair? 💔 Has anyone else been through something like this? I really need someone to tell me I'm not going crazy here 😭 #familyconflict #parentingstruggles #grandparents #FamilyRelationships226Share

RetroVibesOnly+FollowIn 1982 Miami, Grandpa gave me Playboy to “keep me busy.”Old picture from Miami, 1982. My mother had been asking how well my grandparents were supervising me that summer. This photo was a hilarious answer to my mom's questions. My mother was not amused 😂😂😂 #FamilyStories #80sVibes #Grandparents #Playboy #Miami #ThrowbackThursday #FunnyStories #VintagePhotos1375Share
