Controversial take: Boomers are/were the worst parents in history

They were overwhelmingly selfish, abusive (physically, emotionally), and often just absent, leaving the Millennials (their kids) to live as latchkey kids. Even with their children now being adults, they show the same awful personality traits with them as they did when their children were young. So nothing is redeemable. They're still just awful.

Obligatory disclaimer: of course not all Boomers were this way. I am speaking in terms of the general majority rule.

Ridiculous generalisation of a proposition, followed by a selection of ridiculous responses, telling us nothing except that a few self-selecting SW members blame their parents for their own failures.

Alternatively, a deeply insightful intergenerational proposition, eliciting sensitive and self-revelatory responses from a wide range of hard-earned experiences... and someone who wanted to talk about music.

Take your pick. I'm too tored (or bired) to force my spoiled brat brain into a decision.
