This post is from @humbledwriter in which he talks about how older generations play down the struggles of younger generations. I found this post to be interesting in that I could realte to it from two sides.
From one side as a son who's mother and older relatives did the same. "Walked to school uphill, in the snow, both ways" sort of stuff.
From the other side as a parent who now finds myself occasionally doing this too.
I would like to thank @comet.ranker for reblogging and sharing this post as it was enjoyable to read as was the comments on the post.
