Bloo - very well said.
Being a child of the '70's in Vermont is probably like being a child of the '60's down here. And you brought back a lot of fond memories.
Saftey while riding in the back of a pick-up - don't sit on the edge. The wheel well is ok, but not the edge.
Accidents were pretty much a weekly occurance, black eyes and cuts happen....and we are better for them.
Reading this thread has been very theraputic. And reminds me why I am happy I do not have kids and will not have kids.
I am not sure I would be a very happy parent dealing with the crap that goes on today. I might have been a good dad instilling the values expressed in this thread. but dealing "todays" parents would have surely pushed me over the edge. I think there would be too many lawsuits filed against me and my kids. LOL
