Do our parents genuinely not remember how hard it is to raise a child, or are they just gaslighting us?

Whenever I’m struggling with my toddler’s tantrums or feeling completely burnt out, they just act like it's our generation's fault, like we're just incapable of raising a child (even though it was "sooo simple" for them). They say things like, "Oh, you were never like that," or "We just took you everywhere and you were fine." Honestly, I can’t even take that as a compliment. It just feels like gaslighting. It’s making me feel crazy! I know for a fact I wasn't some perfect angel, but they’ve completely sanitized their memories of the 80s and 90s. I just really wish their generation would stop faking their memories and be real about how hard it actually was! #Millennials #Parenting #ParentingJourney #RealTalk
