Orchid I have to agree 100% with you that childrearing has changed, and for the better. Men today seem to have a more hands on, active roll raising the kids. They are not just the "bread winners" or dole out the punishment as in "wait till your father comes home." In my dad men didn't do as much I don't think as the younger men do today. Maybe divorce has something to do with that and the difference in our young women. You think?
