Description

This book is intended to describe in a humorous and insightful way, youthful life in Texas City, Texas in the 1940's and1950's. It is a nostalgic look at things we did, games we played, and lessons we learned when we were children and teens. It is somewhat autobiographical with little vignette type stories, with associated morals for todays children and parents. This book contains a lot of stories about all the wonderful things that children in those times got to do, which todays children hardly ever do, and illustrates how and what we learned about life, the universe, and everything . Mostly we children learned that if we tried just a little bit we could easily do it ourselves, and if we used our imaginations and initiative we could solve just about any problem, and we learned in short, at an early age how to take care of ourselves. Parents who hover about their children are actually smothering their child to death whether they know it or not. Sooner or later a child is going to have to learn how to interact with and deal with the real world on their own. Children are naturally a lot smarter than their parents think they are and can take care of themselves a lot, lot better then most parents can ever imagine, even in predator situations. The sooner a child is allowed to figure it all out for himself , the sooner he will become the successful kind of child that every parent desires and will be proud to say 'That is my child !'.
