Product of the 80’s here, and no to all of them. If a kid was a little pudgy, acted gay, or were different in any other way they got mocked mercilessly. Not saying that was right, but that is how it was. It made you tough, and gave you drive. It was not a badge of honor like it is now. Also, the playgrounds were packed, no matter the weather (and we had to walk uphill both ways to get there!) unlike today when they are many times empty. Don’t remember any kids having an inhaler, or needing an epipen if they got stung by a bee.
"I walked ten miles in the snow to get to school" lol
I walked up hill in snow to school. Then I walked up hill back to my house....in the snow......sometimes barefoot! I am 70 yrs young....
I'm 64 and I remember my dad adding, "....carrying a load of books and my lunch." 😄

Dave Barry once parodied this with, "It was hard during the Depression. Even though the school was two miles away, we walked back and forth five times."
