Thanks for the kind words. Possibly the philosophy of the day dictated schedule?

As children of the '70's, I know we had a whole lot less "supervision" than kids do today. We were sent "out to play"...period. I don't remember ANY parent watching over us. We organized all sort of plans. Some were not so good. LoL

Neighborhoods these days, even on the weekends, are deserted mostly. I wonder if any kids live in the houses I see.

The cul-de-sac I grew up on had kids out playing from early morning on Saturday until the street lights came on. Same thing after lunch on Sunday. (It seemed most families attended some sort of services back then, or else just spent quiet time inside as a family Sundays.) After school, most of our friends were out to play until dinner time.

I digress. This post is about life in the schools from one generation to another. :-/
