    My grandparents' generation had World War One & the spanish flu epidemic in their teens, the Depression in their 30s & World War Two in their 40s. By the Sixties, they'd had it with "interesting times."

        This is what I think about when I read articles talking about how millennials are really experienced in the ways of the world and the harshness of life.

        They say that was a big part of Ike’s popularity and that the 50s were a collective breather.

        An underappreciated part of Ike’s presidency was the dialing back of perpetual emergency. He really restored the country to civil life. We could really use somebody like him again.

        I was 10 years old in 1968. Thought the world was coming to an end. The very next year, we landed on the moon and it seemed like anything was possible!

        Wow, your grandparents must have had children fairly late in life. IIRC grandma was born a year before the end of WWI, and had Mom the year before the US entered WWII.
