Yeah, convenience wise, the kids today may have it easier, but I for one wouldn't give up growing up in the 1960s and 1970s. What great times those were. simpler times, really. We may not have had all the modern conveniences but we didn't know it. I guess every generation looks back and thinks about their childhoods. For most of us, thankfully, childhood is a good time. Not all, but for many it is.
