Would you raise your children like your parents raised you?

Would you raise your children like your parents raised you?

My parents drank, smoked, and my father abused ma while she hit back, so they preferred to do that and treated me like a roommate.

Hell fucking no. I was raised with no rules, guidance, or discipline. I am very lucky that I preferred reading over everything and bitched when I couldn’t do so.

Thankfully they’ve grown up very well and I’m extremely proud of them.

For those who were actually old enough to have experienced the 1970s and not for those who were born in the 70s. What were the pros and cons of that era?

I still struggle nowadays because I want to make sure my kids are safe and healthy, and I tend to overreact because I don’t want my kids growing up like I did.
