Gen-X was raised by pot-smoking '60s hippies.

"The worst parents unfortunately goes to the WWII generation. They raised the boomers."

Wait a minute now! The WWII generation grew up during the Great Depression, and upon maturity had to fight WWII!! It's only natural that you want something better for your children. Nobody wants their kids to suffer the way that they suffered.

The WWII generation endured extreme suffering, so as a result they spoiled their own kids. It's understandable. Not excusable, but understandable.

I'm not so sure Weikel that I would blame the WWII parents for the boomers precisely. I think many were raised well, it's just that social upheaval, Nam, revolutionary music (literal and otherwise) and dope all came together at the right time to send the boomers into orbit in their late teen/early adulthood years.

LSD was a bigger kicker to all that counter culture crap than most folks give credit. All that reverberating garbage brought about to some degree by a fungus. Strange. Like the Great Panics of old medieval lore...lol

Why is that not instead the last great generation?
