Sure, she did her share of recreational drugs, but in the 1960s and 1970s, what young person didn't?

Dozens. Hundreds. Thousands, millions didn't.
Most of the people I had daily contact with didn't. I can't remember a single case of co-workers coming to work stoned.

This seemingly innocuous throwaway line just builds a foundation for the sophistry that follows.

I ain't buying it.

I didn't use drugs.
My sons and daughter don't use drugs.
Sensing a pattern here, perhaps?

I agree. I have never done drugs, either...no desire and no need. I was not in that kind of environment. Perhaps Patti was influenced by the California lifestyle. I have always felt that Maureen and Michael seemed to be more like their Dad, Ronald Reagan, than Patti and Ron, Jr. The latter two are just strange.

I didn't either, and I resent when people from my generation try to say we all did. I knew lots of people who did not! The crowd I hung around with DID NOT Patti dear!

I am with you. I graduated high school in 1960 and did not recreational drugs, didn't pose for playboy, didn't go to antiwar rallies and never humiliated my parents, did not have multiple lovers, not even one lover till marriage.

She is trying to rewrite and normalize her very abnormal history and her utter betrayal and humiliation of her parents.
