things sure has changed since i was a kid. heard a kid the other day talking to one of his elders and calling them an old sob. reminded me of the time i was 15. i had been hanging around some of my cousins already in their 20's and i thought i was a big boy like them. we had a neighbor named john mayo. my cousins referred to him as old man mayo. one of the lucky evenings that i didn't have to walk home from school, my dad had picked us up. coming home we passed mr. mayo going to pick his kids up. he throwed his hand up at my dad. my dad throwed his hand up and being cocky, i replied there goes old man mayo. about that time i felt a slap on my lips and heard these stern words, " son, that is mr. mayo to you ". got exactly what i deserved. don't believe in child abuse, but a little whipping never hurt anyone. no wonder our nation is in the shape it is in. we have got those educated fools like dr. phil and so on that acts like if you whip a child, you have committed a sin. heard a preacher say one time that you needed to apply the board of education to the seat of learning of kids. just my thoughts.

This generation is much different than when I was raised. I see very little respect from people now. Children do what they see and hear in their homes. Parents do not use discipline as was done in the "Ol Days". Children now are walking all over their parents. A little smack when you do something wrong does a world of good. However, there is a lot of child abuse these days. The world has and is changing.

it went out the door when they took prayer and paddling out of the schools.

As a younker any reference to any form of excrement was considered bad manners. We were also taught to play games according to the rules.
