How do tuition, rent, and book prices now compare to previous generations?

As far as education costs go it is much harder now...

Agreed. But that is a different issue...

I know my degree cost me an arm and a leg.

For that same degree today you would probably have to give up the other arm...

This is both accurate and true.

As opposed to accurate and false?

Gen Xers are better than both groups so there is that.

GeauxCougs

3/27/17 11:36am

Gen Xers, by and large, are terrible parents and to blame for the millenial issues.

Terrible/non-existent parenting has led to a whole lot of social ills.
