Growing up with baby boomer parents isn’t just about hearing stories of vinyl records, classic TV shows, or how they lived in a time before the internet.It often comes with a particular set of values and life lessons that shape us in unique ways.I’ve noticed, through both personal experience and from talking with friends raised by boomers, that we tend to carry certain attitudes and habits that don’t always align with those of other generations.We’re the ones carefully folding up wrapping paper at Christmas to reuse it later—and not thinking anything of it. We’re more likely to have a “make it work with what you’ve got” mindset, and sometimes we’re teased for old-school manners.But jokes aside, these behaviors often translate into rare traits that stand out in today’s fast-paced, convenience-driven world.
