This issue of not being around as much as a parent would like to be is even worse these days. The price of everything is two or three times the price things were 20years ago plus tax yet our pay is about the same as 20 years ago. Minimum wage went up but most people that make more than Minimum wage their pay has stayed the same. This was all by design so both parents must work full time and let goverment raise their children so the parents can keep a decent roof over their heads and wheels under their feet. The goverment schooling is what created this generation of...well you know. Not sure what to call them in a nice way. Gm and Ford people got their raise because they striked but not everyone else. People still want to pay a young man 15 n hr to clean up shingles as an example yet 20 years ago when I was 20 I made 15 an hr working construction. Today people still want to pay carpenters 20 n hr 20 years later.

My parents were kind of in the middle of these 2. They weren’t soft on us. And they encouraged us to do our best but they weren’t pushovers either.

My boomer dad was the very best at everything but communication. I'm still terrible at communicating problems or confrontations. Other than that, he was everyone's Fav. He would help us hide during hide n seek with all our cousins, took them 3 hours to find me in the top of my parents walk in closet on the top shelf covered in blankets 😂 we finally told them. He taught us common sense, which is rare these days lol we are able to fix things ourselves most of the time. Not afraid to get dirty, it was more fun playing outside than worrying about dirt getting on your clothes or shoes. I had an awesome childhood, I was adopted into a really great family of boomers❤ I raise my children like they raised me, just being easier to talk to and able to sense things rather than pretending everything is perfect all the time. It's good to raise them tough, but you do want them to be open too. My parents were total opposites. Mom was my best friend, dad was my parent. I choose my dad any day but if I need someone to talk to its my mom.

The fact that I have seen pieces of both in my own parenting (I’m 31) is horrifying. And eye-opening. Thanks for this being in my feed today 😂

My dear sweet mothers advice when i ever got hurt or anything was " It will feel better, when it quits hurting" 😂

Boomer dads were great. Taught us to stop whining, work hard and be self-sufficient. We kids all had chores to do every day to contribute to the running of the household. But were also given an allowance as a reward and to teach us how to manage money. We got spanked when we deserved it, although Boomer mom leaned more toward putting us into a corner (face IN the corner) for punishment (a more advanced type of "time out"). Both were very effective means of punishment and taught us that there were consequences to bad behavior. Our parents were our parents (not our friends) and we respected them as the authority. But they were also our teachers, mentors and protectors. Growing up that way, I would not change a thing.

I’m Gen X raised by a Dad from The Greatest Generation and a mom from the Silent Generation(my dad was QUITE a bit older than my mom) I have a millennial and a Gen Z and even though there’s just a few years difference in age and they were raised by 2 Gen Xers, the difference between the two is 100 percent noticeable. For instance, my millennial can write and read cursive and my Gen Z would die if life savings instructions were written in cursive. It’s so funny to see the differences!

Millennial dad= participation trophies 🏆 specially that first scene lol 😏 I’d hate dealing with parents like that.

Millennial dad = didn’t imagine, create, or hand out participation trophies to himself as a kid and they didn’t mean sh1t to him but sure, participation trophies was a plot by millennials to woke the world.

Boomer man here this is so damn accurate. You either made your own fun or you didn't have any. You followed orders or you got a bigger punishment than just timeouts. I miss those days

I'm so glad my parents were sensitive and understanding like one but tough and casual like the other.

Probably my favorite video that I have watched to date. So good

"this isn't a restaurant" you be it isn't - eat it or starve

Nah.... the way I see it is you can either do it the Millennial way or the RIGHT way.

I love he says his wife would be pissed and that why the kid isn’t walking home 😂

When my kids didn't put on their seat belts, I just break checked their asses! The one that did put her seat belt on, we just laughed and laughed together. Good times.

How is this guy a baby boomer!? 1946-1964 were the baby boomer years. He looks pretty darn good for a man in his late fifties or older!

That is so funny and hits close to home. My kids all joined the Army to get a break!🤣

So hilarious, I love your videos!!😂😂😂

I’m a millennial. But without a shadow of a doubt I’m a boomer dad lol. I got my ass kicked as a kid, especially from my mom. Now while I don’t touch my kids. I’m definitely old school when it comes to parenting because that’s how I was raised!

I'm a GenX dad...giving the attention we never got as kids, but with Boomer tendencies.

“Do you think that was a good choice? Do you think that was a good choice that you chose?” 😂😂😂

“Get out of the car and walk home!“😂

The boomer dad looks like a Generation Xer

I agree with the "Boomer" Dad but the thing is , We're Not called Baby Boomer's we are Gen X not Baby Boomer's lol those are our Parents that are the Boomer's. Lol but still a great Video.

Don't you ever think the boomers didn't play in cardboard forts with us. My grandfather was from the greatest generation, big difference between them and boomers. Now we just have the entitled victims.... zoomers.

I am a product of a boomer dad( GEN X most capable ever), all my girls ride dirt bikes, drive off road machines and have amazing lives.. thanks Boomer dad.

Boomer dad was my dad and millennial dad was my mom 😂😂😂 They had very conflicting parenting styles. Although, if you got mom mad enough she would turn into ultra boomer dad

Both parents generations has strength and weaknesses. Often we see that children when they themselves become parents either try to mimic their parents or try to provide their children with that they feel they lacked as a child.

I'm always left out... Gen X here! I'm more like a cross between the two! 🤣

I'm a mom as soon as they said everyone gets a trophy I pulled my children out of sports. I was in sports and practiced at school and home so we could win. Children need to learn in order to win at life it takes study and practice.

LOL, you really taught him a valuable lesson there by having him stop playing in the middle of the season. Good parenting. Participation Trophies were given to today’s late 20’s and 30 somethings when we were literal children. We didn’t ask for them, they weren’t our idea, we thought they were stupid, nobody cared either way if they got one or not and they all ended up in the trash immediately or at the bottom of a keepsakes bin. I don’t understand the fascination with blaming millennials for something they had zero control over.

Boomer dad is the literal manifestation of my father and I love it

Me and my husband are a mix between these parents. Sometimes certain situations should be taken more lightly than others. But they need to be talked to sternly and shown they need to have respect for elders

I'm a millennial but my dads a Gen Xer. He definitely is a combo of the two generations. He would always want me to get a chance to pitch or bat ect. But if I did he would do the tough love boomer routine.

I don't have kids but weirdly enough even though I'm neither of those generations, I think I would actually be the mother version of both the baby boomer and the millennial dad! Sometimes watching the baby boomer I was like, yep I'd do that, other times watching the millennial dad I was like yep, I'd do that. LOL

Remembering I was sitting on the emergency brake on a pillow for family road trips in the early 90s lol

Dude, I'm dying! You have the Boomer Dad spot on! (I'm a Boomer Dad and have said many of the things in your video).

More like OG Gen'xer dad vs Millennial dad

I'm loving the Boomer dad

"Just rub some dirt on it"... sounds like my dad...lol😂😂

Like Edward Norton said in Fight Club, our generation is the forgotten middle child. And we truly are. How did it happen? We were so cool! We didn't just see The Breakfast Club, we WERE the Breakfast Club! We were the generation that raised awareness about everything from the environment to injustice in Africa and everything in between. We were the US Festival, we were Band Aid, Live Aid, Farm Aid, we got inspired by U2, Nelson Mandela, and Amnesty International. We left high school bound and determined to take on the world and believed what we were told; that if we did the right things, went to the right college and got the right degree, we'd be the successful adults our parents were. But we ended up taking care of our parents while taking care of our kids. We stood by waiting for our lives to begin while the years rolled by and the media fascination with our parents continued. The torch has been passed right over our heads to the millennials as though we never existed, because in the eyes of the media, we didn't.
