Bloomer Baby

By admin  

Do you think baby bloomer are selfish?

My baby bloom parents, left me to take care of their 90 years old grandparents, plus they refused to take care of their grandson. Do you think they're too into themselves?
I know I'm gonna to get yelled by people, but I don't care
They didn't raise me and my siblings one single day since we're born. Let us to our grandparents's care. I think they're too selfish, I wonder who'll take care of them when they're old.
Excuse my spelling, I can't change it

I would have to say you are about 50% right and 50% wrong in your assessment of the baby boomer generation. Some has worked hard and tried to make their life's and those of their children good. There are the ones who like 2 of 3 children I can think of from the baby boomer generation that are that way so maybe it's more like 70% to 20%. I adopted by my grandparents who are now in their mid 80's, and the main one taking care of them. I watch out for them, I make sure they take their medicines, eat, and turn down their bed and even say good night and tuck them in. I mean I feel like I am raising 2 children. Well at lest there potty trained! lol. My Uncle (adopted brother) lives about a 3 to 4 hour drive away, he use to live 5 minutes away. My mother (adopted sister) lives 1.5 hours away. My aunt (adopted sister I love the most) lives like 5 minutes away and does help me some. I am so thankful to have her. My grandmother (adoptive mother) has had a stroke, mastectomy, brain tumor, a broke wrist (on Christmas day) and has fallen and cut her head open twice. My grandfather (adoptive father) has very bad arthritis in his elbows and hips and is having bad back pain. I do the laundry, dishes, cut the grass, figure out what they are going to eat for lunch and dinner each day. Take care of the yard, and garden as well as the roses and other flowers my grandmother enjoys so much but can no longer take care of. I go to the store, order their medications, then when the day is done I sit down and take about 3 to 4 of the 0.25 Xanax. Just to be able to relax and be at ease. Now, while my Aunt helps with taking grandmother to doctors appointments and doing things like that. If it was not for her I would have given up a long time ago. So where are the other 2? My uncle and other aunt who live away from us? Well uncle comes in about once every 2 weeks and stays overnight. Other than that he is never around to help with anything. The other aunt, she shows up about 1 a month to say hello and spends the day visiting. Or if she need money which is normal she shows up more often. If grandmother is in the Hospital they will come up, but if grandfather is in the hospital it is just me and my aunt who lives near by that have to split the duties. I am a 28 year old man, living with 2 people I love more than anyone in the world. So for that I feel lucky, I am however looking for a job right now. What is going to happen when I am not here every minute of everyday to look after them. If grandmother falls grandfather can not pick her up. They will have to call an ambulance. I swore to myself that my grandparents will never go to a nursing home!! I will not allow it, and since I have power of attorney no one can make me do anything. I am mad that the other 2 of their children are not up here, looking after their parents. They should have the love and decencies to be here around them in case something happens. The reason that they are not is because they have other things to do and do not want to be bothered with it. They are being selfish. So I can understand how you feel. Yes I do think the baby boomer generation is lazy, and irresponsible. It is now our generation that is having to pick up the slack and take care of the people we love, our grandparents. They suffered through World War II, the Great Depression, and many other things. They should not have to suffer here in the last years of their lives. I think if you looked around you would find many grandchildren taking care of their grandparents, just because the baby boomers do not feel like it is their responsibility, and feel that they deserve to spend the rest of their lives care and worry free. Well That's just how I see it. I could be wrong.
