The Sandwich Generation by Alicia F.

Lesson 3 in Endeavor Book 7 is called “The Sandwich Generation.” I am part of a sandwich generation. Being part of it isn’t easy, but you may have to take care of your parents and your kids. Parents and kids have different needs. It can make you feel frustrated at times, because you have to deal with two different kinds of life. Kids are always more active, but also, they need to remember how to behave around their grandparents. You have to be careful how you say things to your kids because you can make your parents uncomfortable about how you talk to your kids. You have to make sure your parents are feeling comfortable and your kids also. It is complicated and there are many other needs with sandwich families.
