I lived in both. Prefer the 60's.
I was in high school in the 70's. There are some great videos out there of footage from high schools etc. It's amazing to watch and see all the differences. And, yes, take my phone, tv and all the technology back and lets go back.
Me, too! I graduated HS in 1975. I remember two sides of the 60's - the orderly "normal" side, and the uncomfortable, disorderly, druggies/hippies. I grew up in California and managed to stay conservative through it all because society, as a whole, reinforced conservative values.
Hippies! LOL. We were in polar opposite environments. 1979 Grad. Midwest, tiny town of 50 homes surrounded by farmers and farmland. Nearest 50K town was 35 minutes, largest "city" was 2 hours. It was very conservative. I was not exposed to much until college. I quickly became a hippie leftover. Life went from there to Texas and back.
Now, here we are fighting in the same battle together. Crazy shit.
My dad was from Tipton, Iowa, my mom from North Carolina. I think that helped the conservative side!
My brother from another mother 79 grad in SoDak Didn’t even have locks on the house. Keys in ignitions, guns in unlocked vehicles. Never a problem
Yep, me too. I was in HS in the mid 60's. I think the early 60's were at bit better than the later.
Agreed!
