My Generation...

Things I knew and did that my kids will never know or do.....
  • walk to school alone at 6 years old
  • play unsupervised all over the neighbourhood
  • play my mustard yellow Snow White 8 track
  • travel in the back seat without a seatbelt
  • tan with baby oil
  • Participaction Awards in gym class - always the bronze for me!
  • 25 cent chocolate bars
  • an awareness and fear of nuclear war
  • Having to leave the couch to change the channel
  • Having only 3 channels to change

Funny, there were other things too - but they've come back, like Cabbage Patch Dolls, Strawberry Shortcake, Rainbow Brite.....

That is hilarious!! There are sure a lot of differences. It just goes to show you, everyone has the story about walking to school up-hill both ways; it's just the details that vary.
