Reframe the Guilt of Outearning Your Parents at Their Age

A comment at Sunday lunch about how far your salary has come lands differently than it's meant to, and now you're doing mental arithmetic about their pension instead of enjoying the roast. This separates the actual facts of the gap from the guilt sitting on top of it, and offers a more useful way to hold both truths at once.

<task>
**Reframe the situation in {SITUATION_DETAILS}:**
1. Separate the factual gap in income, opportunity, and circumstance from the emotional story attached to it
2. Identify what is actually being felt: guilt, disconnection, fear of judgement, or something else specific
3. Offer two or three more useful ways to hold the comparison, grounded in the reality that circumstances differ across generations
4. Suggest one small, concrete action that channels the feeling productively, such as a specific way to include or support parents, rather than just feeling bad
