News to me that after 1970, all of those things ceased to exist.

We had freedom, Failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all..

Amen to that, and it was definitely for the better.

P.S. I didn't eat worms. :-)

My mom got used to it. I still remember her meeting me at the front door with towel and first aid kit and making me get the bleeding stopped before I could come in.

When I was growing up, we made rides out of license plates fastened above roller skates and rode them down the hills in our neighborhood. Great fun!

We had pocket knives and played games with them.

Not that they didn't exist; only that our parents weren't labeled abusive for allowing us to do those things, that we weren't labeled as delinquents for doing them, and that, in spite of the shrill warnings of today's nanny state and other meddlers, we came out OK in spite of it all.

We would leave Home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were
back when the streetlights Came on.

No one was Able to reach us all day. —And, we were OKAY.

And CPS wouldn’t grab your kids when you let them walk two blocks to the park by themselves. It’s the liberals that created the society we’re now living in.

There are FReepers born before 1970???

Who posts their stuff? Their wet nurse?

Just kidding!!! I was born in 1960. Or was it '61? Whatever. Jes' having a little fun with my fellow greyhairs.

'Course I dye my hair grey just so my friends don't get jealous. It's not fair that I should have so much hair and it still be nearly jet black.

I got stuck in the foot playing stretch and it wasn’t a big deal. Just part of the game.

I remember when Mom got a new washer and dryer. They were delivered in huge cardboard boxes, which were promptly filled with children, then rolled down Fools’ Hill in a race to the bottom, repeatedly, until they fell apart. The boxes, not the children. Although, come to think of it, we did fall apart, laughing and tumbling head over heels.
