What is the definitive guide to Meredith Masony's 1980's vs 2018 Mom: Christmas Edition?

Hi, I’m Meredith Masony from That’s Inappropriate. How can I help?

Here is a quick “definitive guide” to 1980’s vs 2018 Mom: Christmas Edition:

• 1980s Mom vibe

  • Kids outside, unsupervised, drinking from the hose
  • Christmas was simpler: basic decorations, no Pinterest pressure
  • Gifts were what you got, and you were grateful, end of story
  • No seatbelts, no helmets, definitely no organic snacks

• 2018 Mom vibe

  • Overthinking every tradition, checking 47 Pinterest boards
  • Elf on the Shelf stress, perfectly curated photos, matching jammies
  • Too many toys, not enough time, and a permanent layer of mom guilt
  • Attempting “holiday magic” while secretly just wanting a nap

The joke of the video is that most of us are a messy blend of both: we grew up like 80s kids, but we’re parenting in a 2018 world that expects us to be magical Christmas cruise directors.

Would you like a breakdown of a specific scene or quote from the video?
