Having 4 millennial daughters is terrifying.

Most people that meet me have the same reaction when they hear that little tidbit-they gasp, then they laugh, then they tell me they feel so bad for me.

Well, first of all…rude.

Second of all, I totally get what they’re saying. I feel bad for me too sometimes.

I definitely have a love/hate relationship with the Millennial mindset, but having 4 of my own has made me want to analyze their brain like a mad scientist. While they are inspiring in so many ways, sometimes I just wish they would dial it down a little.

I realize that boomers (and all the generations before us) may not have been perfect, but sweet Millennials need to realize that they too will be scorned when their time comes. If there is one thing I have learned, it doesn’t matter how tuned in you think you are, to your kids, you too will seem like an antique with a brain the size of a pea.

But I digress.

There are a few things I just want them to know that I think will help as they navigate through their life.

Just Relax
