Скачать или смотреть The Optional Generation: Why Nobody Cared Where We Were

We weren’t the “forgotten generation.”
We were the optional ones.
While Boomers were busy having their “Summer of Love,” we were the nine‑month hangover nobody wanted to talk about. We didn’t grow up “independent” because we were tough. We grew up independent because nobody was coming.
In this episode of Gen X UnFiltered, we’re talking about:

How the 70s and 80s quietly turned kids into a lifestyle inconvenience
Why “quality time” was a PR campaign for parental guilt
How being the “good,” invisible kid turned into being the overworked, invisible adult
Why you still feel like a nuisance for having needs at 45, 50, 55 years old

If you grew up making your own dinner at ten, staying home alone at nine, and learning not to ask for anything… this one’s for you.
No nostalgia. No “kids these days” rant. Just an honest autopsy of how we were raised to disappear, and what that’s still costing us now.

👇 ABOUT GEN X UNFILTERED 👇

We are the generation that raised itself on hose water, microwave dinners, and zero supervision. If you survived the '80s and '90s without a helmet or a trigger warning, you’re in the right place.

This channel is about Gen X survival skills for modern life. We’re figuring out:
▶ Parenting (without the "gentle" fluff)
▶ Setting Boundaries (and dealing with toxic family drama)
▶ Money & Career (navigating the grind)
▶ Mental Health (unpacking the damage we laughed off years ago)

No experts, no gurus, just real talk from someone who was told to "figure it out" and actually did.

Subscribe if you’re tired of the noise. It’s cheaper than therapy.
