as an old fart, I to remember the good old, bad old days to, where if you did something you should nt it was not just your dad you got it from, it was who ever was there at the time, and you could just bet your life that mum and dad knew about it before you got home, also if you needed help you could go to just about anyone and you would get the help you needed, people back then were`nt to busy to help out, or afraid to get involved.
kids were told where they could go, and where they couldnt go and mostly they stayed in those boundries, weather it was out of a healthy fear of the consequenses, or a respect that there perants installed in them, it didnt matter, there was always someone watching the kids for the right reason...
Yes kids of today are the loosers in many respects, they have lost the freedom we had as 5-6 yr olds to explore our neibour hood, and have the adventures we had. I to think the kids of today have lost the imagination we had, everyday run of the mill items became some fantastic toy, wich amused us for hours if not days... I think if you put a kid in an empty lot and told him/her to play, they would get board in a few minuets, and start looking for a video game or some such thing.. there were safty in numbers to, back then, not something the cops would look at twice, or the old people in the neibourhood would hide from...
Yes times have changed and not nessersarly for the better, today as perants of 5-6 yr olds you have to keep them withh you nearly all the time, and even older ones you cant let them go to far out of your site, for the weirdoes that are out there.
yes its the kids that are the loosers in this modern times that we all live in, life is more coplicated, and harder for us all...
well thats enough of my rambleing, I think you get what I am on about... what a pitty.
have a good one ..steve
