    Maybe they meant it like “there is now stress for helping pay for college at a higher cost than when they were born.” Or being stressed knowing if the family lives in a HCOL area (typically where those salaries are offered), they might not be able to live there as well with the current trends in housing costs.

    TLDR: things have changed for the worst for newer generations, parents can see it.

      God, I wish I was smart enough to lie this well. No. I like sex, and hate condoms. I’m the dum.

      Kids are inherently stressful. They’re like little abusive people who you can’t legally defend yourself against.
