Sandwiched


My daughter often voices concerns about her teenage child driving around town and her retired parents motoring around the country. I explained that she's now a member of the sandwich generation, being smack dab in between youth and the golden years. Actually, the two aren't all that different---both groups are intent on having fun and avoiding responsibilities. Selfishness is a way of life for the very young and the very old. It's the middle of the sandwich that is required to worry and work. Oh, well, before they know it, they'll be the older generation and then the fun will begin!
