I found that there's some kind of weird thing to not have a preceding generation above you. It makes you feel your own mortality and like you're on your own with no one with more experience than you to run things past. So now I'm on my own without adult supervision. It's dumb to even think that way because I parented my parents and didn't have adult supervision as a child, but there it is. I didn't take it hard, exactly, but it is a kind of weird feeling.
