A phenomenon where a generation of humans makes the same crippling decisions as the generation before them. Examples include: 1) having kids, because your
parents, aunts, uncles and most everyone else in your family had them, most likely at an early age, thus minimizing their chance to live a life they actually wanted and now are living a life to serve their offspring. And your
parents are pressuring you for grandchildren, even though you are barely making ends meet for yourself, what with working full
time and being a full-
time student.
2) Not saving for a retirement, rainy
day, etc. Instead, you spend your
money on a new pair of shoes every month, clothes, Amazon, eBay, and thinking paying $2600 for a one bedroom apartment for the rest of your life is OK. When you find yourself unemployed and broke, you lame everyone but yourself.
Sean just can'
t stop having kids. 28 years old and already he has 4 kids with 3 different women. This generational curse is going to leave him just like his dad: living paycheck to paycheck, making just enough to get by, trying to feed a small
army of his offspring.
