      I do show them in my schools, to elementary school kids. Once they get past laughing at the old clothing styles and the fact that all of the kids look like they’re 40 years old, they settle down and actually learn some pretty good life lessons

      I forgot to mention that I am actually a speech pathologist and work with kids on their social emotional language skills. I find that working onsocial skills probably accounts for half of my workday nowadays. It is amazing to see how many children come to school with almost no understanding of taking turns, hearing opinions that May differ from theirs, as well as having almost no concept of delayed gratification. I don’t want to turn every thing on RUclips into a reference to Jordan Peterson, who by the way I think is a phenomenal motivator, but kids today especially the young boys have everything already done for them mostly by their mothers and don’t really understand the concept of responsibility or putting in hard work. The crazy thing is that the girls come into school fully socially adjusted, ready to learn, and for the most part are wonderfully behaved and unfortunately they suffer at the hands of the boys in class who basically ruin things for everybody else. Like it is amazing to see just how much of a school day is wasted telling this boy to sit down, or this other boy do not swear, Or telling these two boys in the back to stop yelling at each other.

    I like the very small detail that when the girl said she didn't like the camp site, instead of brushing off her remark because HE liked it, he asked her why she didn't like it and took the time to understand her point of view. I feel like a lot of people today have become so interested in their own opinions that the moment they hear a contrasting opinion, they are SO fast to tear that opposing opinion down cause they don't agree.

      Especially on games online, the chats shove LGBT into things before they even understand just cus it's accepted now, and they think that means it's cool or the new sexy thing. I'm not against it, I'm part of it, I'm a bit sad I am part of it because many people who don't even truly know they're apart of it ruin all the point for everyone, and they're literally sexist towards straight people, what LGBT endured FROM straight people in the past! They also get mad their past of being used as a kid isn't right so they dogpile on people and attsck them to make their point seem right that kids should be able to "explore " themselves in the awful way, not just explore what they like, which isn't just LGBT, can be straight too. It's disgusting. Sorry

    All these suggestions for good conversations are common sense...things that rational, reasonable, kind and compassionate people already do. It’s mostly for those people that are none of those things. The one thing that is very hard to tolerate are those people that talk over everyone, all the time. I’ve worked with people like that and after months of this behavior I’m ready to strangle them.

      Friend of Dorothy I have a couple friends like that too. I mean, I go up to them to talk to them, start my sentence and I cant even finish they bring up a whole other topic. Or another thing, I ask something in a group chat and instead of replying they just start talking about their problem and the rest of the people react to them not me xddd i need to work on my patience but fuck people like them. I was talking!!!

      @Liza Szilágyi Absolutely. We all stop speaking when they talk over us, but it is not done in return. I’ve done “experiments” where I’ve had enough and I literally FORCE myself to keep on talking over their blabbering to see if they will actually stop. I do it for as long as they keep blabbering and about 50% of the time they eventually shut the hell up...while the others just keep on going and it feels SO awkward with us two talking at the same time for like a solid minute or more. They are so oblivious to it all. A few will stop and say “sorry”. When two people talk over each other, no one can hear anything, much less understand what the other even said.

    Wow, that second conversation is what I hear ALL the time from people my age!! 😱😱
    I feel that people who were raised on this advice are more enjoyable to talk to. I find it harder to talk to younger people because many of them either interrupt constantly or talk over each other to talk about themselves, zone out while you're talking because it's not about them, or, if they are rude on accident, don't apologize and get defensive when you bring up hurt feelings. I've ended so many friendships with people based on them acting this way.

    I can only imagine the USA must have been the absolute envy of the world in 1950. Very few other countries lived like this at that time, with regular middle class people dressed so nice and playing a casual indoor game with a ball. I bet even many European countries didn't live like this in 1950. I traveled to Asian countries in the mid 80s when I was a small child, and it felt like rural America in the 1930s or 40s. Old fashioned cars without any AC, you rolled the window down to get a breeze, no TVs in homes, only old beat up radios, even for 1985, people still used oil lamps and electricity was scarce. It felt like traveling back to 1935 or 1945 America. If that's what much of the world was in 1985, so what was the rest of the planet like in 1950?
