Ever since I was a little girl, I would always listen to my parents say how much life has
changed since he was a kid. My father would always say that he had to walk ten miles in the snow practically barefoot, to and from school. He would have to find his own rides, and if he ever wanted a vehicle, he would have to get a job and pay for it himself because his parents didn’t have enough money to even help pay. It seemed funny to me, but really it is true. Now a days you can’t do anything like that. Parents can never let their kids hitchhike home or walk because there are so many more crazy people in this world that, a child could easily get abducted, mugged or raped. So when I called my aunt to interview my her on how family life has changed from when she was my age and if these changes perceived as negative, positive or both, it really made me understand how life truly has changed.
Family life has changed from when my aunt was young because she told me they would always make sure they were home for dinner. You played outside but when dinnertime came around you made sure you were home. Also she told me that their was much more respect in the household when he was child. You never raised your voice to your parents or yo
. . .
Back then kids did grow up too fast. Overall I did agree with my aunt, and it made me think how lucky I am. They had to go to school and work and fun time was always last on the list of things to do. On a positive note, I feel she picked up on a lot of the positive changes. She told me that he is happy to know that her children are happy and enjoying life knowing that they have two parents to always support them, and back then it didn’t really matter. She believes that quality time is essential and a lot of families have forgotten about it, because they are to caught up in their own personal lives. The other day I was walking to class and ever person was talking on a cell phone: it is pathetic that, that is the only way people can get in touch with each other. “Bottom line families grow apart these days, but when I was young we grew together. If society hadn’t changed so drastically than the American family would have changed either. I believe we live in a very high society and that this; high society breaks families apart because it takes away from personal time with each other, instead of worrying about money and cars. They are negative because families don’t spend as much time together as they used to. She told me that it is proven that more husbands and wives are divorced than married.
