    And clothing that lasts for more than at least one year, sheesh!

    But were people allowed to say “removed” back then? Truly we have advanced in so many ways!:-)

          I was on the tail end of kids still getting spanked or worse (last of the gen Xers).

          My cousins still had a paddle with holes in it that made a terrible whistling sound before it got you. Their dad was a southerner though was always the excuse.

            Nowadays kids parent the previous generation so I’m not entirely certain that things are “better”. Probably yes in some ways, worse in others:-|.
