They had to put an actual ad on the TV saying "it's 10 pm do you know where your children are????"

As long as we didn’t take a life or bring one into the world, our parents really didn’t care.

“Children should be seen and not heard”… we were ninjas from the start

[Angel-rqpi]

My mother told us Dont call me from jail. We took that to mean DON'T GET CAUGHT😂

[kaindabadguy]

Our generation spent so much time outside, being told to come indoors was like a prison sentence.

[teresarammel]

Our parents didn't know we had feelings.

[brettoberry]

"...Feelings... with your parents." LOL

Her answers are me. I am the oldest of 5 siblings. We were lachkey kids. We played outside until the street lights came on. I'm proud to be gen X. 👊👊👊👊👊

[roseb]

BWAHAHAHA! ITS ALL TRUE. of course we got away with more, getting caught meant getting beat 😂😮

[gillianfrancis]

When you consider what our generation has been through a lot, more of us should be locked up dead or missing, we really are badass..

[lauraD-]

That’s crazy!! Walked to school by myself in kindergarten. No crossing guards. 😅😅😅😅

[amybean-zamora]

Got away with WAAYY more, had a key hanging from string around my neck, and played outside until I was married🤣🤣🤣 I love this woman!

[kimely]

I'm a genx....i approve this message. She's 💯 correct.😁😁😁😁

[chrisrobbins]

Best part of becoming a grown man, telling my parents how much stuff we got away with lol. Got grounded for a week, I was already married

[babypickel]

We learned to survive with little parental supervision. We also were not afraid to call out BULLSHIT when we encountered it.

[KitsuyuutsuR]

Born 1973 and a proud Gen X gal 😊 I was just telling my husband the other day that we were the last good generation and it’s because we’re literally so bad ass. We raised ourselves and we raised ourselves well. 👍🏻

[annettejohnson]

That's why we're so independent! ❤🎉

_My mom had one rule don't let the street light beat your ass home_

[MichaelWrzesinski]

"talk about feelings with parents".. um NEVER! Had a good laugh with that one!

[vanessanassif]

The TV was our babysitter. That's why we still know every single TV commercial from the '70s and '80s by heart.
