    Yeah, those poor 90’s kids were dealing with some unacknowledged or untreated intergenerational trauma, parenting, a cycle which they’ve been working on breaking. It’s really hard to have emotional regulation and not take out your feelings on someone else when you have no pre frontal cortex development, yet, and you’ve never had that exampled for you, by parents. Not having a go at you, at all, or refuting you, your statement is entirely true, they (we) were assholes at times. I just find the second half to that story hugely uplifting.

      Sure, they are nicer because we’re trying hard to make them nicer, more tolerant, more inclusive, etc. It’s definitely a positive.
