I remember the Danny Thomas Show with the bratty kid that talked back. Also Dr Spock ? and his book on how to raise kids. No spanking etc.
They changed everything for the worse.
I used a wringer washer.
Learned to sew on a treadle sewing machine.
Learned to drive in a 1956 Chevy.
Im so bad about not liking new gadgets that my daughter has to turn off my phone at the movie theater. She gave me the phone to begin with or I would still only have a land line.
But I have a very nice fancy Viking sewing machine. A long arm table that I just need a machine for.
I feel very lucky to live in the pine forest mountains of AZ.
