@CNforUSA Those are all facts yet we survived.

We had the BEST childhoods!

This was a very interesting video. The 60s for me were my teen years. It was the British Invasion for music. And the first generation to be truly introduced to sex, drugs and rock and roll. So glad I lived the 60s...

@TheEXECUTlONER_ So true, ๐we called it childhood. Turns out it was resilience๐ฌ๐ซฃ๐ฅด๐ค training-master class in durability ๐ ๐คฃ

This was good! And true!

Well, I grew up in the 60s and Iโm pretty damn healthy as an old man goes

Oh they missed the two that I grew up with. If dad was moving dirt and needed extra weight on the blade, I was told to sit on the blade, put my feet on the mount and hold on to the front hood of the tractor. I am pretty sure I still have a permanent crease across my rear from the blade edge. If dad was tilling the garden with the tractor and hit a hard spot, yep you guess it. Stand up there on the plow frame, one foot on each frame rail and hang on to the tractor seat to steady yourself. I think mom got on his rear about it because he started strapping concrete block to the frame rail of the plow. There was no solution other than my rear for the blade though.

It's true...IT'S ALL TRUE!!!๐คฃ๐คฃ

Survived it all.

Also works for most of the 70's.

I did surviveโฆ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ

Yep! Still here ๐

Loved my chemistry sets

@Ersin0X Those are the best of times

As the youngest by 9 years born in 1970 Iโm well aware of all of this from my older siblings. I did get all the hand me down toys that werenโt being held for a murder investigation ๐คฃ

@silentblossom_ All true and more

Those were the good old days ๐ช ๐ ๐ข ๐

Great fucking time to be alive!

Might of been tough for our parents but it was an awesome time for kids. Most kids played outside didn't matter about the weather. On the farms when we were old enough to learn and help our folks, that's what we did, and played when our chores were done. It was good back then.

My brother had a chemistry set with probably samples of uranium ๐ oh and we had a Geiger counter to boot ๐ฌ

@j0ker937 I survived ๐คทโโ๏ธ

I survived all of these things, and while I agree with many of the modern safety steps I wonder what gives the govt the right to dictate to us how to live

"OH look, I made mustard gas." ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ

My Parents new better than to get me a chemistry set. I got a pellet rifle instead. No supervision and you know what.. I never shot anyone!๐

It was the best time ever to be a child.โค๏ธ

Go feed the 200 pond sows. When they clamp those teeth down on your eight year old leg, beat them in their snouts, they'll squeal in pain and let go.

I had all of these toys. Today's kids wear elbow and knee pads. Lol We all have scars but had to walk it off. That's what our parents told us to do.

You list those things like they are bad or something.

Wasnโt born yet but was a kid remembering similar times. I miss those times. ๐Oh how I wish we could go back.

@TheLucyShow1 ๐๐๐ฅ

Love these and it's all true. ๐คฃ๐คฃ

@DonaldS77320 It's all true. ๐

Survival of the fittest.

This was my life. Thank God for that! It was a much better time to be a child then. We made our own adventures. We learned how to deal with adversity.
