Generation X and Middle Children

 Generation X is just that.  We are anonymous and unheard and blend into the wall.  We were ignored.  The Boomers, Millennials, and Gen Z are the focus.  Boomers think of Gen X as millennials, and millennials think of Gen X as Boomers.  Nobody cares what Gen Z thinks of us.  

Generation X is often compared to being a middle child - ignored and left on their own to figure out life without guidance nor support from anyone.  

Here's the kicker:  I am Generation X........AND........I am also a middle child.  Double whammy on the scale of being invisible and ignored.  I know PMF (one of my coven group) can relate to me as she is also a middle child of Club Gen X.  That's why we "get" each other without saying a word.
