Boston Family Vacation '76

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2295411/fan_mail/new] In this episode, Eileen recalls a poignant moment between Gen X and younger generations, recognizing that we are all living life for the first time. That no matter our age or season, we are all human. A gift not given to most of Gen X.  We grew up figuring it out for ourselves, fumbling miserably, and fighting for some sense of security, stability, and sanity. Our parents were detached and disappointed in our incredible ineptitude. (But was that necessarily our fault?) Listen for the Boston Family Vacation of 1976 that never was. Offering a glimpse into a childhood littered with insecurity, neglect, and manipulation.  Support the show [https://www.strangerswithkittens.com/contact] Strangers With Kittens is a podcast created by Eileen Kelly and Produced by Ashley Aker.
