[overdraft]

?

it's the same as the nutcracker generation

sounds crap to me! lol

hmmm something to do with grandmothers and children ... or

Caring.....

or

Having 2 men

It is when you are caring for your own children and elderley parents, and you are stuck in the middle.

It is very very hard to deal with.

thank fizz for clearing that up.Yes must be hard work. Just never heard og the term before.My mum done it

sorry overdraft, didn't mean to keep you hanging on wondering what I was on about - got distracted.
But I'm glad fizz filled you in (as it were!)
The nutcracker thing is just a phrase I've heard used in the same way - being squeezed from both sides of the age divide etc

I wouldn't have a clue what it meant either

I though everyone was going to discuss what butties they had for lunch lol

Lol - my first impression was that it was something to do with our excessive work ethic and people's tendancy to grab 'lunch on the run'. Interested to discover the real meaning.

I was pondering this. Have the MNHQ lot all got the munchies or something?

It's people who are looking after young children AND their own parents.

Sorry, see fizzbuzz already answered.
