Wouldn't Want To Go To School Today
See Vladimir response to other asshole.

Single parent household in 50s were -- how you say -- few-and-far-between. Mostly because single mothers usually lived with their extended families rather than in separate households. There were plenty of single parent families because the divorce rate had already risen well before the 1950s And single parent households were far more common in the 1800s when early death of one parent or the other was common, even though divorce was not. lojbab --- Bob LeChevalier - artificial linguist; genealogist Lojban language www.lojban.org |

Often, teenage pregnancies were covered up with the girl going out of town to have her baby. If she returned with baby, the grandparents or an aunt and uncle often claimed the baby was theirs and raised it without the child knowing who the real mother was. All your excuses do not cover up fact that far less OOW in 1950s. What excuses? I knew many teenage girls who got pregnant in the 50s. Vladimir say your experience not microcosm of typicality. Vladimir doesn't have a clue how girls were treated back in the 50s. I say what I experienced was much more typical than what you experienced. Nonsense. You are leftist with head in sand; you find nothing wrong with today's society which is the result of nearly 50 years of liberalism, moral relativism. Anyway, original point above does not pertain to teen mothers but to single parent households regardless of age of parent. Single parent household in 50s were -- how you say -- few-and-far-between. These were OOWs despite the fact that the children were not necessarily brought up in single parent families. OOWs and single parent households much rarer in1950s. No, OOWs were just more hidden. Single Parent households were rarer because OOWs were hidden and girls could not *choose* to keep their babies and be single parents as easily. That is -- how you say -- bool****. Vladimir live in lower middle class neighborhood -- at best -- (some called it upper lower class neighborhood) where you might expect OOWs. Nothing hidden in that densely packed neighborhood. Everybody know everbody else business. OOWs very rare. |
