I remember when you lost a parent and no one ever mentioned them again.
I remember when someone had cancer and everyone ignored them and whispered about it
I remember when in the 60's crime doubled.
I remember when there really was not good treatment for mental illness.
I remember when people started to find out how mentally ill patients were being treated in institutions.
I remember when pregnant women smoked and weree given amphetamines if they felt tired. (most of our mothers friom that era)
I remember the kids of women who were given Thalidomide for pregnancy nausea
I remember when a woman was being abused and she was too embarrased to get a divorce
I remember when children were abused and no one lifted a finger to help
I remember photos of people from Japan who had been a little too close to Hiroshima and Nagasaki...how deformed some of them were
Back when the World was safe...
Ps. yes, I was a weird little kid. I noticed how things were.
