I can't be alone in this. Before the vaccine came out, parents of millennials would send their little kiddos to Chickenpox parties and get them infected on purpose. It was never a practice encouraged by any health organizations -- it was just a social practice that a lot of parents bought into.

Anyone else remember this practice?

Happy 71st birthday Cyndi Lauper!
r/GenX

Generation X was born, by broadest definition, between 1961 and 1981, the greatest anti-child cycle in modern history. Nevertheless, we grew up to become the world's most devoted parents: the "workhorse of America." This sub welcomes links, photos, graphics, memoirs, commentaries, stories, etc., for and about Gen-Xers, the 13th Generation of Americans. GenX also translates to many other parts of the world.
