Welcome to unhinged parenting.

And I was right.

She continues, “For example.

Facebook post from a Gen X parent discussing their frustration with Millennial attitudes toward having kids, citing their own daughter’s decision for sterilization, with 76 likes and 102 comments

I’m 42 and my daughter is 22.

She decided a while ago she does not want any kids.

She’s actually getting a procedure for sterilization next year.”

I don't know who is in the image. A woman with a serious expression is looking to the side in front of a microwave. She's wearing a black top and has her hair in a ponytail

It’s not a joke.

If she wasn’t so selfish, I wouldn’t have a toddler daughter right now."

First is the judgment she displays over her daughter’s personal decision not to have children.

“My daughter, 26, is not having kids.

I am happy that shes happy.

“It seems that your Daughter is way smarter than you, the parent.

I wish her well, good health, and lifelong happiness.”

Mother can suck a duck, you don’t get to dictate what your children do,” userleeingram01said.

“I know this from experience you’re better off without a controlling mother like that.

Having kids because her daughter wouldn’t have children?

Okay, thats just…weird as fuck.

My daughters 42 and chose not to have children.

Uh, no…I never, ever thought about making more babies to compensate.

This is so not a Gen X position.

were like, just dont have kids if your not flipping ready, even if thats never!

But this situation did make me wonder about other childfree people’s experiences with their parents.

How did they react to the news?
