Well in the beginning. It's been down hill from the get go.

More specifically to what you are saying someone had to teach the baby boomers to be bad parents. We can pass the buck all we want or we can raise up decent kids and take responsibility. That scary "r" word is what runs most people off. It's no doubt getting worse and will continue to. There are some still trying though.

I would have held the door all day for her.

Me too -- I wouldn't have backed down like wrench did. He's freakin' part of the problem that he's whining about. :D

By the way, I always hold the door for my buddies too. Then, when they get half way in I let go. Oh, the laughs we've gotten out of that one as we traveled to the ER the get the nose set.

Timing is everything on letting the door shut on your buddies, can't teach it, you either have it or you don't. Just right will knock their case of beer or soda out of their hands making it undrinkeable for a little while.

Why all the childish talk .. nothing good to say dont say it

What ever happened to the saying " if you don't have anything good to say say nothing at all.

I think that since this is a forum and people never are talking face to face that people talk to much smack. Be kind to each other and enjoy the great outdoors that God has blessed us with.

Im not sure what you are defining as a "baby-boomer" those are kids born 1946 to 1948 dependent on when their father got home and from the war and met/married or did the nasty with the "Boomers" mother.

Most if not all the Boomer I know taught their children the common morals ( Holding a door for a woman or elder, Yes Mam No sir etc, walking on the right side of an isle, Hat off inside and so on )

I believe however the boomers children were the ones who have lost the "Social Graces" as they decided they would not enforce the harsh penalties and consequences for failures that their parents did. This has then past on to their children.

Personally I believe a Belt, Whip and Switch were the best teachers I had growing up. They were the cure for ADHD, Swearing, Disrespect and so many other social issues of today. They were better than any visit to a doctor and only needed on most occasion to be prescribed one time. They were so effective even Principles had one often with holes cut in it to aid in sound effects and if they used it then when you got home you got one of the first three from your parent. Imagine that Not only was your Parent a Doctor but so was your teachers and principle and they knew the cure for whatever (stupid illness) you had. They knew how to fix stupid.

Concerning the baby boomers, their children grew up in the sixties and all the hippie era. I know the urban vs rural thing will play a major part in how kids were raised. All but a couple of my cousins who grew up in Southern California in the sixties are disasters for parents.

Fin, that's a affel harsh opinion you disclosed, I'm a baby boomer and had my cases of desipline which included the belt but to lump all of us boomers to your analysis is far fetched on out of line.

Be kind and keep harsh opinions to yourself!
