I read Opdyke’s article every Sunday and it’s all about family issues and money. He debates with himself about the cost of soccer lessons, car buying, vacations, second homes, and sharing of household duties. I read because it is a great inside look into X and Y Generation’s pathology. He is also PW’d by his wife AMY.
I read “People” magazine in the Wal-mart line for the same reasons - it makes me feel just wonderful about my own life!
See, now I read the article by this piece of garbage wrapped in skin called Jeff Opdyke and my immediate thought was "typical boomer." I see that he's 41 so he resides on the cusp of Boomerdom/Gen X. But I must say that the pathology of Gen X and Y comes from only one place: the destruction of American values and the lack of personal responsibility that Boomers consider a point of pride.
