@bennettitalia!!! Welcome back!!
Thank you for nominating me @wandrnrose7 - you're too kind -
I appreciate all the feedback from those who've read about 20thC childhoods vs today's more enlightened 21stC version. My "normal" was almost everyone's normal, back then; today, my kids say "You were an abused child!" but I didn't see it that way.
(Note: Our 21stC daughters defined child abuse as only 3 cookies, not 10, for dessert. Or, I raised my voice. Child abuse!) ;)
