I think the previous generation had no thoughts of their children at all...complete neglect compared to todays parents...if you look back to the 90's parents were both working 8-12hrs a day...MOST kids were latchkey, having to learn how to microwave from 2nd grade up and when the parents DID get home from work....they were too tired to give a 'poop' about their kids...plus divorce rates in general show just how selfish the previous generations parents were...

They not only neglected their kids to keep their 401k's and Mcmansions funded...but they broke up dispite the effects it had on the kids....the previous parents generation was about the worst we could ever have

The 90's is hardly the previous generation. The comparison is with my generation and my children's generation. The problem started with the "me me generation". However there are exceptions. Our son and his wife definitely sacrifice a great deal for their 3 children ( 8, 4, 2 ).

Our kids were never latch key kids as my wife was always a homemaker. The same thing is true of our son's wife.
