Well, my parents aren't boomers. My father was born during The Great Depression and my mother during WWII.
My father grew up dirt poor and worked from the time he was 7, when his first job was accompanying the milkman on his float. The man would drive, my father would jump off the float and collect or deliver the bottles of milk.
Everything he earned par a few pence for pocket money went to his mother, who used it to feed and clothe everyone. Even as teens, they turned over their wages to their mother, who gave them pocket money and the rest went to keep everyone fed and watered.
So no, I don't think he should bail me out of debt and if he offered, I wouldn't take it.
If you are struggling to pay your minimum payments then go get some help - there's a lot of free charities out there or even your local council might be able to help.
Ultimately, we went through our council, who has a registered money adviser on staff, to set up a formal plan for us, but we have no assets, savings or property and are on a very low wage.
