In my opinion one cannot look at how they lived, in the time they lived, doing and believing what were the acceptable norm of the day.....then look back and measure and define yesterday by today's standards.
The standards of today (of our children) are very, VERY much different than those of their parents or grand parents. That in no way shape or form means what was allowed back then was wrong or incorrect.
And just because our standards have changed to something different does not neccesarily mean the change was indeed for the better.....it simply means it has changed.
