As a generation the men of the day had little interaction or responsibility for their younger children's immediate needs. She juggled paid and unpaid work and felt she deserved some time to herself. 000

My mum made it clear to her 3 adult kids that she was not available to be a source of source of childcare, that she had done her time, educated herself as an adult and was looking forward to life without immediate responsibility for infants. She was a grandma at 53 and died at 58. 000

boothwobblies.bsky.social @boothwobblies.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Yes I agree and that was my point about the generational divide. Older people tend to have the invested income attracting the higher interest. 100
boothwobblies.bsky.social @boothwobblies.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Isn't there also a generational bias here? With the boomer+ generations needing less or no debt, houses paid off, superannuation (401K) balances to spend, the burden falling disproportionately to those who are starting out in their working lives, borrowing, having children etc. 100
