I do somewhat miss it, but I can't go back, so I try not to grieve. We had the best time to grown up in, really. My dad used to say that these were the last of the Golden Ages. I thought he was just rambling in his thinking, but it turns out he was right.
Not really . I had to live with my whisky drinking step-father and be polite and grateful to him . Meh . I do not make any assumptions about children living their best years .
