“Most successful people have a long string of failures early on. They learn from their failures, make adjustments and trying again. What separates them from other people is they get up again when knocked down. They don’t quit. They may give up on the path/plan they’re currently on but they start a new path in a new direction based on what they learned from the last experience.”
Boomers are making decisions that are extremely disadvantageous to my employment prospects. So, yeah, I’m not happy with those decisions, I’d much rather you simply left us alone rather then throwing up all the hurdles and barriers that you can.

Life is change. It’s non stop. Adapt or whither away. It won’t adapt to us. That’s just hard cold reality.
You chose a History major. You chose to be a teacher. Those choices have consequences. Just because it worked for your parents doesn’t mean it will continue to work or there aren’t additional complications to making it work for you.
In short what you seem to be saying is “the man is keeping you down”... Does that sound familiar?
