        When I've visited with colleagues in their homes for small dinners, for instance, and their children are there, too, I end up seeing--as an observer, of course--what that experience is like. It's definitely different.

        Raises hand. Sort of. Mom went back to college once us kids were in school and got a teaching degree.

        One parent returned to school when I was in HS to get their AA & the other is a HS drop out. All three of the kids (me and my siblings) now have/getting graduate degrees 🤟🏽 a lot of trial and error in figuring school out & help from my sister that I passed onto my baby brother

        Emphatically NOT me. Mother barely finished public school in the dust bowl years, and father had only a year or two of high school before he was pulled to help his father full time with the farm. Second and third generation PhD families are a wonder to me.

        I am first-gen but my mom finally got an associates degree around the same time I got my MA. So proud of her!
