A show called "Everyday Parenting Across the Generations" appeared out of nowhere.
The show selected four families from the post-70s, post-80s, post-90s, and post-00s generations, bringing them together for a livestream comparison and a close-up look at their lives.
The show began.
The post-70s grandpa, Grandpa Bao, wanted his grandson to get a better education.
He hired a parenting coach to teach the child in a scientific and proper way.
The post-80s dad loved his son like a mountain and worked tirelessly, taking him from one tutoring class to another. The boy excelled at school, but was a helpless baby in everyday life.
The post-90s dad packed his daughter's schedule full. She was sleep-deprived and exhausted.
The post-00s dad's approach to parenting was another story entirely.
"Dad, hurry up, or the snail's going to overtake us!"
"I've eaten more salt than you've walked roads."
"No wonder you live like a salted fish."
"Grandma, all you do is yell all day. If you've got the guts, do something about it!"
"You're broke all the time, yet you're so good at making excuses."
"I'm doing this for your own good. Why won't you listen?"
"Forget asking how I'm doing. Show me the money!"
"With a face like that, you should stay indoors!"
"With a mouth that nasty, you should keep it shut."
"I have trypophobia. I can't be around people with too many tricks up their sleeves."
The production crew: "..."
The experts: "..."
The audience cried out in unison: "The rebellious post-00s have grown up and come back with little rebels in tow!"
It's alright, though, but not bad. You can check it out. Sometimes the language is a bit off and can be annoying, so I suggest not thinking too much about it. 🧠
Honestly, this book really captures the current state of raising children.
Generally, it's written in a way that's difficult to understand.
It's good; it captures the bitterness of a generation.
