Everyone knows people can be stupid sometimes. We also know that we used to hate when our parents/grandparents would go in a rant, talking about "the good old days." However, this proves that sometimes you wanna do that very thing.

I'm in 6th grade and when my brother asks what it was like when I was a kid I always said "Back in my day"
i say this whenever i look at a playground or anything that reminds me of when I was a (younger) kid
Was I was little, I had an ipod. My family didn't have a TV, and out of 6 people, only my mom had a computer, which technically belonged to the school she worked for. My 3 siblings and I were only allowed 1 hour of screen time, and that was only on Saturdays and Sundays. If we were caught on a device during the week, our Saturday and Sunday screentime for that weekend was taken away.
I live a super lucky life. Not a rich one, but I'm so blessed. I have so many great things that I'm so thankful for... yet at the same time I wish I could go back in time when I would get little exposure to electronics. When I learn about people that have TV's in their rooms, the newest iphone, their own personal laptop, etc... I feel very happy that they have all of these good things, but it also makes we want to mention my early life.
My younger sister asked me about Play-Dough. I remember so much memories with that goo..
When I read comments of young teenagers saying that video games like Super Mario Galaxy 2 was their childhood. I grew up with the NES, SNES and N64, so I had the urge to tell those kids: "Back in my day..." Also those kids will never know what it was like to use floppy disks!
When my youngest son watched some old John Hughes movies with me.( Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles etc)Asked if people/styles really looked that way and if certain things were accurate. Hence the back in my day...
Well i was born in 2009, so there were certain toys and games and music we would hear and my little bro was born in 2012 ish so i do that all the time!
