An angry grandmother has gone viral after a video of her ranting about millennial parents was shared on social media.
The video was originally uploaded to YouTube by Quayla Ann, who captured her mother's irate tirade about millennials using their parents as babysitters for their own children.
Appearing to be at the end of her tether, Quayla's mom bashes her daughter offloading her own kids onto her to look after, instead of paying to take them to a daycare center.
Take a look at the rant in the video below (Warning - strong language):In her profanity-strewn speech, Quayla's mom states:
"Just because I’m a capable grandparent does not make me the babysitter or a daycare.
"Grandparents, true grandparents, they’re supposed to raise their children right to where when y'all start having kids.
"Y'all can financially provide for your own children and secure their daycare so you can go to work, so you can go out, so you can do anything else."
She continued: "Grandparents are supposed to be able to come to your house and stay with you and visit with their grandkids.
"You are supposed to drop your kids off when the grandparents call for them and in their leisure time. Grandparents are not supposed to be daycares.
"We have our own life. We worked very hard to get everybody out of the house. Why would we want to raise your kids and keep your kids? That's out of order. […] It don’t go that way. Y'all got it messed up."
She finished up by stating her belief that millennial parents harbor a sense of entitlement, and judging by the video's comments, a number of people agree with her.
For instance, one YouTube user wrote: "The woman raised 5 kids! She doesn't wanna raise 2 more."
Meanwhile, someone else wrote: "I would never sit there filming my mom and laughing while she is desperately trying to preach facts!
Another person wrote: "SHE IS RIGHT. Grandparents spoil grandkids not raise them. Cute kids though, good luck. [sic]"
A fourth person added: "I absolutely agree with this grandma. She did her job already. She raised her own kids. She doesn't have to raise grandchildren."
Another commenter chimed in: "Grandma shouldn't raise her grandchildren. Grandma needs to live her best life. She'll see her grandbabies when she says so."
Finally, another person wrote: "I feel like the woman who posted this expected people to be on her side... when in all reality the grandmother is 1000% correct."
So was the grandmother in the right? Or is she overreacting? Let us know what you think in the comments section.
