Recently a student at Northern Illinois University wrote one of those articles that feels startling because it’s so honest. Speaking from his own experience growing up in a broken home, he says:
If there's one thing I need no citation or research to prove, it's that our parents have done a pretty horrendous job bringing us up … Since the Baby Boomer generation has gotten so much fun out of naming us hurtful and insensitive things like "Generation Me," "Generation Why," "Generation A.D.D." or the "Entitlement Generation," we should perhaps return the favor and start calling them "Generation Divorce."
While I don’t agree with all he writes, his final advice rings pretty true:
Marry late, and marry once, and don't have kids until you can love them, nurture them, pay for them and teach them there is such a thing in life as two people who cannot be severed.
Stumble It!
