But I don't consider things that transcend childhood, appeal to everyone, and that are just timeless bad to celebrate or share. It's just that Dinosaucers isn't one of them.<br /><br /><br /><br /> <br />Travishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00364518472279105312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3073247115214549586.post-60219483484146553812012-10-26T19:55:53.504-05:002012-10-26T19:55:53.504-05:00I was thinking about this.

We took their music and their hippydom. <br />Back then parents couldn't share their childhood with you. You had to discover the bits you liked and if they started talking about way back when your eyes glazed over. My generation was spoon-fed our parents childhoods in media, every movie or T show related to the 50s and 60s. But your parents weren't allowed to talk about it. <br />Now it seems, at least with my generation-and I am guilty of this, that we freely share what was great about our childhood. For example, I sat down and watched the first Tron with my boys, and play them my music. There is some of media doing this for me, the new My Little Pony comes to mind. But now it seems more acceptable, again with my crowd, to share our childhoods with our kids. <br />Let me be clear, by the time I was old enough for my parents to find me interesting enough to share their stories I was too old to want to hear them (teenagers!)<br />With our kids we started straight out the womb.<br />I have no real point here. Just an observation. But I do wonder what our parents thought when we all started wearing tiedye listening to The Doors and lighting incense. Did they feel violated? Did they just shake their heads? <br />Brandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13067191544704466869noreply@blogger.com
