What *don't* you miss from your childhood?
 
I really don't miss anything. I didn't wanna be a total downer in the other thread though. lol

My childhood wasn't good. I don't have many memories at all, and those I do have don't really qualify as fond.

I *am* glad that my kids have had opportunities I never had. I hope they have fond memories to look back on someday.

I don't miss the boy next door chasing me with a snake he had killed. Ugh!
I don't miss the long walks to and from school, especially when it was cold and/or raining.
I don't miss having to turn off gas heaters at night.

The outhouse.
Cold winters in central Illinois.
Alter services that lasted until midnight and after when I had to get up and go to school next morning.
Six week long revivals.

I don't miss getting up early in the morning getting on the school bus my mother drove and sitting in the cold until it warmed up.
I don't miss being picked on by my older brother
I don't miss going to sleep in an un air conditioned house.

Those 70's dress and hairstyles!

Having only 3-4 channels on TV (which wasn't actually 'fixed' until about 1989 because of our out-in-the-country home).

Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford (whom have been reincarnated in our two present reps).

Is there something we need to know about you? Too much whips, handcuffs, and leather?

I don't miss my Dad calling me names and telling my Mom bad stuff and lies about me.

I don't miss being picked on and being called nerd.

I don't miss being on the free lunch program.

I don't miss "Knight Rider", or the stupid talking car.
