Now let's be fair here. In the olden days there were good girls and bad girls. There were some of my ancestors that had children out of wedlock as far back as 1849 and as early as 14 years old. There were kids that went to my high school that got drunk every Friday night and there were several kids in Greenup that went to jail so many times as an adult they were considered to be habitual criminals and went to an adult prison. There were children that were abused, starved, deserted, etc. I didn't believe it when my mother-in-law told me a few years before she died in 1998 at 92 that kids in her day were just as bad as they are now but it was just kept hidden. I was not very popular in school because I didn't drink and had to be home at dark and that was pretty early in the winter time.LOL. Mother was very strict with me, but that was not the case with all children. I remember one time I had a boyfriend that told me to put out or get out. I reminded him that he was in MY car and I guessed he was the one who would be walkin. haha. With all the media we are just more informed of what goes on today and what used to be kept in the family is now open information to the whole world. Sorry I got on my soapbox, but I really don't want to classify all kids of today as bad when per capita they probably aren't much worse than they were back in the good ole days, they just didn't have the same tools to be bad with then that they do now. Instead of guns and knives they used their fists and instead of drugs they used alcohol. I hope I don't get kicked out for sending this, but you know how we Kentuckians are - just don't know when to keep our mouths shut sometimes. Mary
