Lived through it. It's even worse than is being presented here.
You are so right. I lived it too, but as a boomer being left to watch my younger brothers every summer from the age of 12 on up, starting in 1967.
And no values either. Dad was a big atheist.
My parents were putting each other thru college.
One of my brothers died of AIDS in 1990.
The other has never had the courage to marry.
I still marvel at what my parents were willing to do to their childern, as I watch my daughter grow up.
Somehow, God found me and I got saved in my late twentys.
Married, stay-at-home mom, homeschooling our daughter.
There will be a bigger crop of people just like me coming into adulthood.
**It's even worse than is being presented here.**
Thank you for sharing that cryptic message.
