Young girl dies in H-town wreck

Oh yeah, Mom was first with the flyswatter, Dad only if we didn't straighten up immediately. Or if we were in church -- after one trip down the middle aisle with him pulling me and my brother along and getting a whooping outside the sanctuary, all he had to do was make a mean face and we quit fighting.

One day when I was about 6 or 7 Mom's swats were ineffective and I laughed. That was one of the worst mistakes I made as a child. Dad didn't tolerate his kids laughing at his wife.

 

My thoughts exactly. My kids may get a bit rowdy in the back seat goofing with each other but they know where the line is and they dont cross it.

 

Wow, I guess I had it easy in the back of Dad's 1971 Plymouth Fury station wagon. My sisters and I thanking dad for hitting a bumpy road and being weightless. To which us kids declared "Thankyou man" It was great fun back then. Even blew my mom's mind when I fixed the triangle front window vent on passengers side. The weatherstripping just needed to be reseated. Mom liked it as it took out the whistle the car used to make.

Seat belts for kids I can understand the need now. Its not like the life we had back in the 1970's

 

Let's see...my son never did that...i see too many people make excuses why their kids do this...

 

Growing up my brothers and I were DETERMINED to find any seat belt we could find that worked! And this was years before seat belt laws became mandatory.

 

This is horrible. So sad

 

Just got here from Honduras. Probably doing 40 in the hammer lane.

 

They gonna blame the truck driver anyway because he swerved to avoid getting hit by another truck.

 

And they wonder why we maintain our lanes and don't try to help people get on interstates when there is traffic.
