What do your children think of your childhood when you tell them about it?

Amusingly, when my daughter saw a video cassette of one of my evenings with friends, when I was a youngster, in 2000, her reaction was:

"It looks soooo strange, no one is looking at a smartphone, everyone talks"

I don't have any kids but I've mentioned a few things to people a generation or 3 behind me about things we had or that I did and, quite often, get insulted by them over it, just verbally kicked into the corner with bullshit like, "Well, we don't do shit like that anymore, grandpa!"

They have been jealous beyond belief that a world such as the mythical legendary 80s ever existed.

Really?

Really.

Don't consider that we were living with music 24/7 though, but the boredom I often felt in this era is actually faithfully reproduced in this video I think 🤣

@Maybe_Maybe_not wow, I guess the kids of today may think the life in the 70s and 80s for people who were around at that time older to remember what it was like is ancient

I wouldn't trade a second of my childhood for what they call childhood today
