This article that I stumbled upon was quite interesting. It kinda of related to today but than in a way it didn't. I personally think that kids back in the 40's, 50's, 60's, and 70's were A LOT tougher than what kids in todays society are! I am around sports a lot and if someone gets a jammed finger you see them winning like a little baby. But in the 40's-70's they just sucked it up and went on like nothing even happened. It is so amazing how times have changed! I would love my classmates to read this so they know exactly how good we have it these days because if we lived back than I don't believe a lot of the kids today would. Why and how did we get so lazy? The kids back then didnt worry about obesity because they got out and did things the hole day wether it was playing with there friends or working but now we just sit around eat and sleep. If we were more active like the kids during the 40's-70's the U.S. would not have to worry about obesity. I really enjoyed this article and recommend you to read it as well just to see how times have changed.
