After seeing the same issue in clients and her own life, a millennial therapist took to TikTok to ask baby boomers one question.
Mary Beth Somich, 34, has over 10 years’ experience as a licensed clinical mental-health counselor. During her career, she has noticed something that parents born between 1946 and 1964 “consistently do” that she “truly doesn’t understand.”

@stephanne221 Parenting psychology 101: what signals are you sending your children? Signals of attunement, or rejection? It’s natural to accidentally send signals of rejection, what’s critical is the ability to attune, validate, and repair. Also, this experiment was btwn a mom and a daughter so i focus on the mom-daughter caregiving bond, but this dynamic can be present for any caregiver-carereciever relationship. #mom #parentingtips #parenting #relationships #relationship #family #millennial #millennialmom #childhood #childhoodtrauma #generationaltrauma #psychology #attachment #attachmentstyle #therapy #therapytiktok #therapytok #mentalhealth #fyp #foryou #foryoupage ♬ original sound – Steph the Attachment Therapist
