Back in the day when we spilled milk, juice or water on our clothes we were told it will dry and we'd be ok?
OR
When we fell on the playground we were told to shake it off, we would be ok (unless there was blood squirting to the sky).
OR
When we had a headache, a belly ache or sore throat we were told to tough it out until after school?
Parents were only called IF we were bleeding profusely, had a bone literally sticking out, or had a temperature so high you could actually fry an egg on our foreheads. ?
On a more serious note... does anyone feel we may be teaching this generation how NOT to cope with life?
Back in my day we didn't cry over spilled milk.... today you get a new set of clothes, and if you're real lucky you may even get some socks and shoes to go with your new duds! ?
