RE: A Snippet of My Life as a Child: To Flush or Not to Flush
I remember the Cosby Show and old reruns of Fat Albert, vaguely.
I think when it comes to what we all did as kids versus what our parents actually knew about us and how we were dealing with their behavior, many can come up with a similar story as above or how you describe Cosby's.
Kids these days got it good. They fear having their phone taken away. We feared for our lives.
I had forgotten about Fat Albert. The cartoons back then were pretty great.
The youth these days may be spoiled in many regards, but the cartoons they have are pretty awful.
I remember coming home from high school and seeing by brother watching Captain Planet and thinking, "This is awful. Why would you watch this?" I didn't realize at the time that this was the beginning of the end of non-edutainment cartoons.
