It is often stated that art imitates life. Well, this is the case for us Baby Boomers when it comes to the cult classic A Christmas Story. We Baby Boomers can relate to the BB Gun Obsession, The Dangerous Triple Dog Dare, the ‘Boys Will Be Boys’ Attitude, Kids Left Unsupervised, Overindulging in Soap Punishment, and the culturally insensitive, “Chinese Restaurant” Scene. So, sit back and listen to what it was like growing up as a Baby Boomer.
