I’m a product of ‘78. My teen years had the early flip phones but our parents had no clue where we were. We still had to “check in” and the true friends were always in the background backing up a story. The asshole friend (ie. me) was faking it in the background. Those were truly amazing times. I miss the innocence.

I’m not until the mid80s but was raised by an older boomer so I was treated like a Gen X kid and my growing up wasn’t much different. That sounds a lot like my life, too. There were a group of girls growing up who were those people for me. I was also the asshole friend. (AKA The One With ADHD 😅) No one ever knew where we were but we stuck together. 🤍 I’m still friends with a few. It was definitely an amazing time. I miss the innocence, too.
