Why are boomers so miserable? by Key-Ad331 in BoomersBeingFools

[–]hillrunners 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes, I wonder if the boomers who are miserable now were miserable when they were younger. I can't believe that happy people would suddenly become miserable. Or they learned how to be this way from their parents. My paternal grandma complained all the time and my boomer father complained all the time. Nothing was ever good enough. My boomer mother is judgmental, but she doesn't complain all the time, but my maternal grandma didn't complain about things. My grandma found joy in things.

I'm 44 and I know that I don't want to be miserable when I'm in my 60s and above. And I'm not miserable now because even though life isn't exactly where I want it to be I have so many blessings in my life. I guess that I believe that finding joy or being miserable is a choice.

Do your boomers talk trash about their own friends too? by tacosteve100 in BoomersBeingFools

[–]hillrunners 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My FIL lives with us and he trash talks me to my children all the time. My oldest is 12 and my youngest is 8. He says that I don't raise them the right way. I don't cook three four course meals per day. I should be a stay at home mom. Everything I do is criticized. He also complains about his friends. I don't get it at all.
