That's sad about your daughter, I always think that family is thicker than anything. I think the cut off for me is toxic behavior that is borderline abusive but never because of politics. Family is everything.

@Northguy1, I assume you're mature enough not to pay any attention to SW guarantees about the future :). As for feeling you've outlived yourself, it can get worse. Wait till you're 20 years older.

Her brain is still maturing. I grew and inch in height between 20 and 21. She is not yet fully cooked.

Every generation tries to carve a new niche. Some disparage those from before. This has gone on for thousands of years.

Embracing the new doesn't imply ditching the old. You lived a life rich with experiences, good and bad. This doesn't mean you must reject what has not been part of your life until now. I enjoy classical music, rock and roll, electronica... The fact that experiences are different don't make them mutually exclusive. You can learn to understand and appreciate the current generations without ditching your former self.

I understood my mother much better when I became a mother and walked a mile in her shoes.
Our children shouldn't be saying somethings they do or judging some ways they do.
I don't think us changing our whole ways of being and seeing things is possible. I'm not even sure I WANT to be current with how things are now.

@SW-User What I understand of this current generation, from what I have seen, I don't want it, either. I don't understand the earrings through the tongue, and through noses and eyebrows, and tattoos all over. I don't understand people wearing their hats backwards, and their conviction that they can be offended at anything somebody does, but people being offended at something they do or say is not to be tolerated. I don't understand the instant anger, disrespect and name calling and the intentional rude behavior. I don't want to be any of that.

She's probably still in the immature stage. She'll come around as she experiences some of what you've been through. I guarantee it.
I'm sorry to hear. That seems a bit harsh.
