We all know it was not all like that but I try to focus on the positive and I enjoy hearing the memories other people have of the wonder and imagination of childhood.<br /><br />Regards<br />Guy Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12546069846136464138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1137553668555203001.post-27945186824683477832012-09-25T10:32:07.048-06:002012-09-25T10:32:07.048-06:00Guy, I have those same memories of childhood and s...Guy, I have those same memories of childhood and school, and construction paper projects for each season! Today's children are missing out on the pleasure of the last day of school and the joy and anxiety of the new year beginning!

I am sure each generation feels nostalgia for things they remember especially if childhood was a happy place. I often fall back on the quote by L.P. Hartley “ "The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there."<br /><br /><br />All the best<br />Guy<br />Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12546069846136464138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1137553668555203001.post-17496271149841458212012-09-18T16:57:03.568-06:002012-09-18T16:57:03.568-06:00The feeling I have is: the parents, and I only spe...The feeling I have is: the parents, and I only speak for here, are less committed to the welfare of their children. So the teacher is parent, teacher, and babysitter without the support or training.The parent's whole life is based on themselves and their comfort. They are not examples at all.
