[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think she was 3, but she could have been 6? The expectations in the 50s, 60s and even 70s (and forget about the decades before that when little kids worked in sweat shops!) were more less hands-on raising kids. I definitely grew up in an out of sight, out of mind household. As long as we showed up for dinner all was good.[/quote] Three sounds like a stretch but definitely 6. My Mom rode the train, bus and a jitney to get to her Quaker school in Philadelphia in the 1950's (by herself).[/quote]
