When i was young I thought my mom's colorful decor was ridiculous. Now I'm old and my kids think I'm ridiculous for wanting colorful everything. Is that a thing?

Not too sure, but when I was younger I wanted to fit in and picking colorful stuff made that harder. Id worry about it being on trend, or masculine enough, etc. Now that I'm in my 30s I said fuck it and am getting more colorful.

Doesn't help that I grew up with a mother who refuses to paint her walls anything but off-white or pale green for resale value. There was so little character.
