I disagree with that entirely...those people you speak of are
responsible for the civil rights movement, great scientific gains,
and overall progress....


You're right katy. That's the trouble with youthful ignorance. They don't
believe that just 50 year ago blacks couldn't go to white schools or even drink
from white fountains, that birth control as well as abortion were illegal, that
police commonly beat confessions out of people, that most Americans thot women
couldn't have orgasms, that there was no interstate system or space travel, that
an orange was a treat found in your xmas stocking, nobody'd ever tasted a kiwi,
that not one in ten graduated college, and so on. They expect their "silent"
parents to support them until they are 30. Mark's mommy prolly still washes his
skivies!

My Silent generation parents have done what they do best, remaining
silent. My Dad said point blank that he didn't want to know what was
going on.


Worse yet, it never occurs to them that dad may be burned out from getting his
head busted at demonstrations and his ass busted trying to support and educate
his ungrateful son - that maybe Dad expects HIM to take over where he left off.


Ah, spoiled brat syndrome. .....
You'll get over it when you grow up.


I wonder .....
