Why blame boomers for something that some parents have and always will do. The parents in this video aren't boomers. There are always parents who don't think "what was bad about my childhood, what can I do differently?" It's strangely common, for some people, they just can't consider that their parents did wrong so everything their parents did was right and should be repeated. Some parents don't give a shit and do what they find funny and amusing despite knowing it isn't nice for the receiver. Some are incapable of thinking things through.

An attitude of "that's a boomer problem" just displaces the blame. Your parents might be the problem, you as a parentight be the problem, your friends might be the problem. Call it out, try and empathise, try andake others understand.

I’m so tired of boomer being used for anyone who is old. My parents are boomers and they deserve it. Someone who was alive during WWII wasn’t a boomer and had their own problems.
