“After decades of shaping of the world, the Boomers are finally facing their end. It’s something we all must deal with one day. But when you’ve experienced power your whole life, the end of one’s life is the ultimate moment of being powerless in the face of something you can’t change. And they hate the very thought of it.” DeathPowerDeath And DyingMillennialsBoomersMillennialMillennial AuthorsBoomerMillennials Quotes Author:I.M. Millennial
“I’m her grandmother!’ my mother repeats, now shouting. ‘I have rights. I get a say in how she lives her life!’ That’s what it comes down to, doesn’t it? Rights.

Even the Trailers live in the Boomers’ shadow.” PowerBoomersMillennialMillennial AuthorsBoomerMillennials QuotesZoomersBoomer Grandparents Book:A Year in Boomertown: A Memoir Source: A Year in Boomertown: A Memoir
