My teenage daughter was in a diving competition. Ended up being too close to the board during a high difficulty dive and knocked her two front teeth out. The pool manager retrieved the teeth from the bottom of the pool, her brother went the two blocks to our house got his motorcycle, returned to the pool and took my daughter and the teeth to the local ER. Someone finally called me at the office and told me about it so I could go home and check on her. The teeth were wired in place and she was fine, all things considered. If that were to happen today, I’d probably be hauled off to jail and my teenagers in CPS custody but that was in the 1970’s.
“I’d probably be hauled off to jail and my teenagers in CPS custody but that was in the 1970’s.”
My kids were teens in the 70s also.
I didn’t know where they were most of the time but they always arrived home on time and safe and sound.
They were good years.
