  Water under the bridge. Great example of covering the sins or shortfalls of others, especially a parent. No doubt, us genX have our share of shortfalls, whether our faults or flaws brought on from our upbringing.

  True, most of us, especially men, think we're okay simply because we're still getting around on our feet, despite mentally being exhausted. Some go to therapy, others like myself go to Scripture. People won't admit it, but it's God that got them through the hard times and made them truly better people, not shrinks. And, yes, God uses people to help you but it's through Him.

  I think most genX did not have time, privilege and recourses to party much. But the few occasions they did it was bodies everywhere the morning after plus repairs to be done on Dad's house/club house.

  No doubt so many genX went undiagnosed for all kinds of things and simply dealt with it until this day. I think we were the first guinea pigs for testing the new public school system that incorporated latch key kids so they doubled as day care centers.

And still wont do drugs so why would I get someone else too attempt giving me advice? <br>I&apos;m pretty sure my personal resume would trump theirs! 🤔 <br>The one downside has been once you get here you trade off friends and everything else in cost but it can&apos;t compare in the end! God bless you all and your families.
