So, are you saying that it is good to keep things under cover? The reason it was the good old days for most of us is because the bad stuff was kept under wraps; sometimes out of choice, many times because there just wasn't access to news like there is today.
I remember most of my childhood fondly. Knowing what I know about the fifties today, I'm glad my daughter was born in the eighties. I'm hoping that my grandson's generation is a little kinder and more accepting than the children of my and even my daughter's childhood.
