A viral fake call from a Millennial parent about traveling on the holidays is feeling real to viewers. The viral TikTok from user @carrerasfam shows her husband “explaining to her Boomer parents” the difficulties of traveling with kids during the Christmas season, saying they won’t be the ones to make a trip and instead want the grandparents to come to them. Now, with over 315K views, the comments are full of viewers sharing their experiences of parents who expect them to visit, despite the convenience of staying put with the kids. For Millennials, who often have smaller homes than their parents may have, demanding work schedules, and tighter budgets, the prospect of packing up the family for a holiday trip is clearly getting tiring. But regardless of distance, it seems that Boomer parents (at least of these commentors) frequently expect their kids to bring the whole family to them, as may have been tradition in the past.
