We Also Had Really GREAT Music, Played Videos Games And Loved Being Outside Away From The Adults

IN THE 60'S/70'S EVERY GIRL HAD SADDLE SHOES AND CLOGS. NOBODY LIKED THE SHAG OR LONG DRESSES. WE ALL ATE LIVER AND ONIONS THAT ONE YEAR THANKS TO WEIGHT WATCHERS. NOBODY LIKED IT. WE HAD TO EAT EVERYTHING ON OUR PLATES AND WE ALL ATE AT THE TABLE. EVERYONE WATCHED THE WAR IN BLACK AND WHITE, SAW THE DRAFT AND WATCHED DARK SHADOWS AFTER SCHOOL. WE CASHED IN GLASS BOTTLES FOR PENNY CANDY; AS LONG AS WE DIDN'T TAKE CANDY FROM STRANGERS, GET IN A VAN WITH STRANGERS ASKING FOR HELP LOOKING FOR A PUPPY AND OUR PARENTS DIDN'T GET A CALL FROM ANY ADULT TELLING THEM WE MISBEHAVED WE COULD GO ANYWHERE AS LONG AS WE WERE HOME BY THE TIME THE STREET LIGHTS CAME ON; ALL OF US KNEW OUR COUSINS COUSINS, HAD THANKSGIVING WITH OUR FATHER'S FAMILY AND CHRISTMAS WITH OUR MOTHER'S FAMILY. WE GOT SPANKED WHEN WE MISBEHAVED, WERE NOT EVER ALLOWED TO BACK TALK AND RESPECTED OUR ELDERS WHETHER WE LIKED THEM OR NOT; WE MARCHED AND FOUGHT AGAINST INEQUALITY, WARS, CORRUPT POLITICIANS, RACISM, SEXISM, INFLATION, NAZIS AND WHITE SUPREMACY. GIRLS HAD HOME-EC. BOYS HAD AUTO MECHANICS, WOOD/METAL SHOP. WE STOOD FOR PEACE, LOVE AND ROCK -N- ROLL BABY!
