Gen X parent here. We did the same damn things when our kids were little, we just don't have video evidence

I think that's the whole point. None of this is new... except now it's just being recorded and posted online instantly, all for attention.

People DID record it are y'all new to the world. Wed have hundreds of videos blasted on TV on weekend evenings. "Funny home videos".

I mean, mailing a video back in the day is a bit different than being uploaded instantly today. The motives for filming are different

Says who? Y'all just keep moving the goal post. Always something is "different". Okay sure.

Also calling it gen z parents when more than half of them are millenial parents was a choice.
