We were the apathetic generation, when it came to politics
We just assumed that politicians actually loved America and would fight to keep it strong and free like Reagan. It took us a while to figure out how wrong we were.

And boomers are great parents? The generational blame game is dumb.
I'm solidly Gen-X (1974) and my kids are 7 weeks and 21 months. So don't blame my arse. Lol.

Gen X‘s children are Gen Z.
Boomers were born in 46-64.
Gen X were born in 65-83.
Millennials (Gen Y) were born 84-02.
Zoomers (Gen Z) started in 03 and will be complete next year.
Gen X is better than the Generation before and after them. However, there is something interesting with Millennials. The Reagan babies that Boomers had and the Zillennials (99-02) the Xers had are much better off than the Millennials in the middle (89-98).
Zillennials are all over the place. They are very much like their Gen X/Reagan baby parents in that they reject the typical and seek out for themselves and want to break new ground, but some of them want to experience too much of what their elders did and that’s why you have old problems rising again that were solved decades ago (Civil Rights, Communism, etc.)

Gen Xers think they are holding the country together but all theyre doing is opioids and split custody parenting

54 was pushing the end of that in America. Talk to your grandpa.

Too late for millennials. Most consider 1980-1981 to be millennials.

Maybe the younger half. The older half have millennial kids.

That would make your dad Gen X. Those born in 1965 are the beginning of Gen Xers.

The politically correct term is co-parenting.

Nah it was one man. The dude that came up with the food pyramid. That dude has literally caused genocide by obesity and the sugar cane lobbyists. They are worse than Pablo and El Chapo combined
Sick people that have created generations of problems.

If your dad is 54, then he is a Gen X’er.

Plenty of people born in 1965-1975 have kids born before 1996 though.

Everyone protests too much
Enough complaining and go do something else

55 and I agree with you. My wife and I were raised much the same way. Both of our kids are adults who are upstanding citizens with good manners and respect for authority and elders. Two grandkids now being raised the same way. WTF IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE!!!
