- intended 14y agoDon't forget that traditional values and wisdom at one point believed that the ideal child was actually a young gentleman. Tradition values covered up a huge amount of pain and suffering and created the veneer of predictability. We've turned over the rock and whats crawling out is what people used to know always happened, but never spoke about.
- lostlogin 14y agoConsidering that life expectancy, quality of life and opportunities for better life are all somewhat better than historically, I for one like the current way of the world. I say this comparing it to what was, not to what it could be. Far too many people (a majority?) have far too little. I've just waved off my grandparents at the airport. My grandfather is the last living of his 14 siblings. 7 made it out of a childhood of abuse, poverty and neglect. Edinburgh in the 1940s sounds like a hell if you were poor. Edit: autocorrect error.
