It’s incredible,isn’t it?

I doubt that we could list all of the laws that have taken away personal choice since you and I were girls.

And then,of course,the safety rules for babies and children. It boggles the mind. The removal of the high diving board at our local swimming pool was the last straw. The pool was 12’ deep and jumping off the board was a rite of passage for my kids and their friends. No one ever was hurt. Now——gone. {Of course that ended the diving lessons)

I’m glad I was born when I was—we had the best of it.

Remember going out bike riding and it was fine, you just had to be home when the street lights went on..didn't need helmets, walk home from school without having the buddy system so you wouldn't get kidnapped...swimming in the school pool after school, different times for boys and girls so you weren't hassled.

Segregation is so awful now a days you have to put up with boys if you want to go swimming in the pool....Co-ed dormitories in college now co-ed public bathrooms that let transsexuals and cross dressers use the girls bathroom, it stinks in this country and don't you dare call a spade a spade cause that has racist overtones....It sure didn't when I was young...there was a difference between a spade and a shovel...we have become the insane asylum for the universe and the nuts are running it...

You could suspend trouble making students from school, there was no mainlining of special needs kids that upset the whole classroom and the teachers that think its important for 6th graders to know how to put a condom on a cucumber...Glad I am old and had a fine time being young and without fear and crisis being crammed down our throats, along with lie's told by textbooks in school about globull warming etc....the list goes on forever.....
