Dutch tall ship causes acute embarrassment
I agree. The maturity level of the two generations you describe is vastly
different. Considering that one of the most difficult choices children in their early teens have these days is what video game to play, I think it would be comparing apples and oranges to the children of days past. Besides, the average lifespan in those days was 30-35 years. A 13-15 year old girl could be considered middle-age...!!! "Paul Schilter" paulschilter@comcast,dot,net wrote in message ... Jake, I don't recommend that people get married these days until at least 25 let alone have children before. But I find it interesting that in reading a lot of books about American Indian culture, when a girl had her first period she was considered a woman and frequently married and had kids. Perhaps they were a lot more mature for their time and place. Paul "Jake" wrote in message ... snipped All of the shows on TV do nothing but emphasize sex. Children are having babies in their early teens because of this constant influence. snipped |
