I may be nitpicking here but I think people are misinterpreting the caption.

They aren’t directly saying, “your parents ignored this and now we’re fucked”

It’s saying, “IF your parents ignored this and you found out, you’d be mad”

Implying that, “YOU should not ignore this, because what will YOUR children think of YOU?”

A lot of people are focusing on saying “uh well my parents aren’t to blame” or “they wouldn’t understand” but that’s not the point of the message.
