A viral video that comically portrays a millennial daughter teaching her boomer mother about todays parenting practices is resonating with parents and grandparents alike. The tongue-in-cheek video has been viewed more than 21 million times and counting since it was posted on Wednesday.

Comedian and writer Taylor Wolfe of @thedailytay Instagram account is the millennial mom in the video, with her mother, Sandy, playing the role of the boomer grandmother. In it, Wolfe corrects her mom again and again for saying seemingly innocuous phrases to her granddaughter things like Be careful, Stop hitting, Im so proud of you, Hurry up and Watch out.

But if youre a millennial parent who spends time on social media, youve no doubt been inundated with Instagram posts and TikToks imploring you to avoid this language in favor of gentler alternatives , lest you damage your child.
