This article is especially so relevant to Gen X adults who are still dealing with Boomer parents. My parents are gone but my husband's mother, who is almost 80, is a terrorist in polyester. She still continues to try and control every single holiday. She also thinks she is super human. She got a cold recently, a pretty bad one. She typically downplayed it and couldn't believe, even at her advantaged age, she got sick. Gen X has been given a load of crap dealing with these Boomers!!!! They are the most narcissistic and self centered generation I have ever met in my life.

Thank you for this article. There are so many of us still dealing with this crap. I am in my late 40's and still being treated like I am in my 20's.
