Are you a boomer or were you raised by a boomer because I call bullshit. The "me" generation could have done a lot of things and didn't do any of them.

Most of them don't actually love their children. Not the way we mean it today. The children were left to figure it all out on their own. Ask any gen X or older millennial.

Children weren't outside because people were less fearful, they were locked out of the house and forced to fend for themselves.

The only loving families for most were those portrayed in television.

That's ridiculous. As if anyone could gatekeep the concept of families loving their children, like it's a new thing recently invented.

You simply were not present to observe all of what you are assuming happened. I was present to observe many "boomer" parents providing a loving upbringing for their kids. They raised my generation, and I knew many of them.
