I just saw this and HAD to add it .......

May be an image of 3 people, child and text that says 'WE DIDN'T HAVE AN X-BOX TO PLAY WITH WHEN I WAS A KID. WE JUST HAD A BOX.'

I'd be so happy to be transported back to the fifties and live in a kinder, more gentle country.

I hate the period we're currently living in; the political climate, the crime, lack of morality, general lack of respect for others. I don't like anything about it including many technological inventions.

As a nation we've become rude, ignorant, and obnoxious. We tolerate and accept it as "normal". I don't like us.

A childhood free of devices, helmets, safety gear and safe spaces. 😳

While those vehicles look 1950's, we lived in a tight knit suburban neighborhood not that long ago. You knew your neighbor, klatched in your kitchen over coffee and a nosh while our kids played together.

It wasn't by accident. We chose to make it that way.

I love how I grew up. I spent a lot of time in the summers with my Uncle and Aunt. I can remember sleeping in late and by the time I got up it was lunch and my Aunt would cook me a burger and fries and let me eat on a TV tray in the Living Room and watch cartoons....good memories, happy times.

This tender photo wrapped a bow around my heart!!!💝 I was instantly transported back to a time when children were free to play in the neighborhood without FEAR. They were allowed to experience what every child should have; the INNOCENCE of childhood! Everyone looked out for each other, AND each other's children! Those kids did not know the atrocities that were yet to come.😐 Their minds were not filled with thoughts of hunger, homelessness, abuse that unfornuately so many today know all too well!

It would be almost impossible today to see a group of children gathered without at least one of them having an electronic device in hand.😁

THANK you so much for sharing this thought-provoking photo, as it gave me such a comforting feeling just now!❤

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

As a woman, I would never want to go back to the 1950s.

I believe the same would be said for any person of color also.

We would be second class citizens and devoid of rights afforded to others.

No thanks.

Living in the kind of world today, those pictures and memories are like they were all just a dream.

@Mersha - I was not alive in the 50's and I sure would not want to live in the 50's for the reasons you stated.
