Being towed down the mountain on cardboard with mom at the wheel....OK, ok, so we all know this wasn't safe, but back then, it's what we did. Blushing

We did a lot of things when I was younger, that they have deemed unsafe. And we lived through it. LOL

Re: Jenelle & Stephene - 1997/98
I have fond memories of standing next to my dad on the bench seat when he drove the big farm truck to town. We didn't wear seat belts. We rode in the back of station wagons and pickup truck beds. We rode bikes w/o helmets or padding. Went on roller coasters w/o the safety equipment that exists today. Safety just wasn't such a concern back then. YIKES!! Does that mean we are on the "older" side?

It seems so very unfair! Youth is wasted on the young.

I feel sorry for the kids today. They can't do a lot of the things we did when we were young and enjoy it like we did. We spent most of our days outside playing. In some cases, we had to use our imaginations. The kids today are missing that. It's a shame. Sad

Re: Jenelle & Stephene - 1997/98
So true. You rarely see children playing outside anymore. How can that even be healthy!

It's not. Of course the world isn't as safe as it was when I was a child.

Re: Jenelle & Stephene - 1997/98
What I don't understand is why the mom's and dad's aren't out there playing with their kids, or watching over them as they play. This would ensure the kids get the fresh air they need to grow up healthy and strong. Isn't that what parents are supposed to do to make sure their kids stay safe? Not let them sit in front of a TV, PC or game box!!

Re: Jenelle & Stephene - 1997/98
You're right about that. I don't know. They should be. Smiling
