I want to talk about Self Esteem and how it changes, between generations, according to our life experiences. My generation (the Baby Boomers) didn’t grow up thinking we were “hot stuff.” During our childhood, Brazil was going through a tough dictatorship. This did not help our Self Esteem. Brazil was not a BRIC at that [...]

I really like this video. Not just because it’s funny, but because it’s true. It reveals a bit about who the baby boomers are, and what their kids, Generation Y are like. First off, as a mother of two young adults, belonging to Generation Y, I must say that it’s all true. Mothers want more [...]

“If you tweet my post on Flickr, I’ll give you props on your blipper, and confirm your PR on my Facebook App.” When I hear a sentence like this, I get chills up my spine. I feel that I’ll never “get there.” I’ll never truly understand this new language that kids use when they talk [...]

He remarks that when we travel by plane, the crew always warns us: “Please be careful when opening the overhead bin, baggage may have shifted [...]

True to the “baby boomer” frame of mind, I catch myself thinking that Generations “Y” and “T” don’t have the faintest idea of the effort we “Boomers,” make to understand a world which is completely different from the one we created for them. After all, Boomers created the microwave. The invention which saved or perhaps [...]

I write with great ease about generations. Yet, I think it’s worthwhile to dedicate a post to explain exactly why people my aged are called “Baby Boomers.” Baby Boomers are the sons and daughters of the Veteran generation. Veterans were born between 1922 and 1945. As World War II came to an end, they returned [...]
