A lot of us probably remember the good old days when we were freezing in bed,
the first thing to do in the morning was to light the stove so that a pot of
water could be made to boil to make coffee and get the place warmed-up so that
the icicles on the inside of the window would melt in winter etc...
 
All our shopping was done on foot, we had no car, no TV and we lived a much
more productive life as a family. People talked, youngsters learned to argue
their case ... they needed to because almost always there was a parent around
with whom "no" really meant "no". Today kids can only formulate one sentence in
IM-mode and then they are at the end of their arguments written in real crappy
language.
 
Etc etc ... you have lived that period too so you know ... I kinda long back to
those days when I went to the countryside to my grandma for vacations. We ate
fresh produce from the garden, eggs straight from under the hen's belly, we
knew our neighbours and in the evenings we just congregated and talked while
youngsters invented all kind of games without the need of a playstation ...
none of these games involved shooting violence, pornography or scenes from the
3rd Reich.

At least in our western society ...
