The Sandwich Generation?

ever hear of this phrase?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich_generation

The Sandwich Generation is a generation of people who care for their aging parents while supporting their own children.

there are different sandwich generation scenarios:

Traditional: those sandwiched between aging parents who need care and/or help and their own children.

Club Sandwich: those in their 50s or 60s sandwiched between aging parents, adult children and grandchildren, or those in their 30s and 40s, with young children, aging parents and grandparents.

Open Faced: anyone else involved in elder care. [1]

are any of you traditional, clubhouse or open faced?
