The thought of beginning our fifth decade
is overwhelming. Many of us may be thinking, “I used to know who I wanted to be, but
now I’m not sure anymore”. Boomers have
always been different. So many questions
about career, family, aging, self-image, worth
and all so very confusing! Many Boomers
are finding themselves in a time of transition.
Millions are becoming empty nesters
while others are still raising children and
caring for elderly parents as well.
By definition, a Baby Boomer is generally
someone who was born between the years
1946 and 1964 - now between the ages of 44
and 62. This 18 year span represents those
years directly following World War II that
was characterized by economic prosperity,
but more importantly, led to the biggest
population boom in history ? lasting until
the introduction of the birth control pill in
1964.
