Quaranenting

An overtly permissive (and survivalist) parenting style that reflects the utter exhaustion of any personal time or space from one’s family due to quarantine, isolation, and/or social-distancing requirements in the era of a global pandemic like (but not limited to) that of the novel Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, causing COVID-19 and parental insanity the world over. Best summed up in a meme featuring actor Ken Jeong in a sombrero. Lack of space and sanity means all the rules are different... Professional level Quaranenting often also involves using another pandemic-enabled tool: margarita take-out/delivery.

Normally I discourage skateboarding and soccer in the house but I’m Quaranenting, so I’ll allow it.

I am 100% quaranteed that the PS5 will be delayed. Not only the current pandemic crisis but because it said to have overheating issues.

Quarantennials

The generation coming into their 20s in the coronaviral age. Leaving college with a stay-at-home diploma, the prospects for career and family will be different from those faced by any generation in memory.

"As one of the Quarantennials, my education promises almost nothing. There will be no work for me, or anyone, in my chosen field, no promise of income, no practical dreams of home and family. It's true for almost everyone I know."
