The sporadic musings of a middle aged man who isn't exactly happy with the direction America is taking today....
"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not." ~~Thomas Jefferson
"Who will protect us from those who protect us?"
Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. ~ Thomas Jefferson
"None are so hopelessly enslaved as those who falsely believe they are free." ~~Goethe

Drugs and kids...
We didn't have ADHD when I was a kid. (It hadn't been invented yet :)) We had discipline and were held accountable for our actions. Sometimes painfully accountable. :)
Stay safe.

I felt the belt or the paddle or the lilac switch more than once :)
They took away discipline and replaced it with medicating children. Despicable.
I miss them days best in my life
My mom's favorite was an 18-inch ruler, or an unplaned lath.
In front of all us kids for shame factor.
Mike... Exactly!
Chams... :)
Bob... Yep, "public humiliation". We got that too. :)
Bravo
