So what does growing up old school mean? It means that you lived in one of the greatest time periods in America to be a kid. It means that you played outside every day, all day long and that you got dirty and hurt. You did things you weren't supposed to and you probably had some close calls but you lived through them; now those are the funny stories you tell of "remember when". It means that you were expected to eat SPAM and fried baloney (yeah, that's how we said it and probably still do) sandwiches every once in a while. You probably got picked on by some bullies but you probably played plenty of pranks yourself. Gas was under a dollar and your dad would let you sit on his lap and drive the car on back country roads. Your parents smoked, drank, cussed, and beat your butt when you deserved it. We had great music and played it loudly; we danced, and grew our hair long, and lived everyday like it might be our last. I have spent the last several years trying to appropriately recapture in print the essence of living in those glorious, carefree years. I have written, edited, added, revamped, and now I think I've nailed down what perfectly exemplifies what it was like growing up in the 60's and 70's. It is a journey that will evoke fond memories on every pa≥ memories that may have been stored away behind the everyday stresses that have burdened all of us, but once they are dusted off, I can guarantee that you will feel young again.The book is DONE ! There are over 270 pages, so this isn't just some pamphlet, it is a very descriptive account of what it was like to be a kid during this era. The book is very informative for younger readers and will stir memories for us "old geezers". But you will laugh out loud when you start reading the stories of some of the things we were crazy enough to do when we were Growing Up Old School.There really aren't very many books (actually none that I have ever found) that you can find that go into near as much detail about the 60's and 70's as this book. You will read, and re-read, and talk about this book, and it will stir up memories and take you back to your youth like a time machine. If you were a kid in the 60's and 70's and don't buy this book..., well I don't know what the hell you're saving your money for! And if you didn't grow up in the 60's and 70's but know someone who did, what an amazing gift you could give them; a trip back in time when they felt invincible. Nothing is better than that!BUY THIS BOOK AND YOU WILL FEEL YOUNG AGAIN !

A memoir of what it was like to be a teenager in a tumultuous era, from the New York Times–bestselling author of The Best of Us. Joyce Maynard was eighteen years old when her 1972 New York Times Magazine cover story catapulted her to national prominence. Published one year later, Looking Back is her remarkable follow-up—part memoir, part cultural history, and part social critique. She wrote about diving under her desk for air-raid practice during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Beatles’ first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show, and catching the first glimpse (on the cover of Life magazine) of a human fetus in utero. Extraordinarily frank, sincere, and opinionated, Maynard seemed unafraid to take on any subject—including herself. But as she reveals in a poignant and candid new foreword, she carefully kept her inner life off the page. She didn’t write about her difficult relationship with her mother, or her father’s alcoholism, or the fact that her best friend at college had struggled with the knowledge that he was gay. And she did not mention the most important part of her life at the time she was writing this book: her relationship with reclusive author J. D. Salinger, who read and corrected every page, even as he condemned her for writing it. In this special anniversary edition, Maynard’s candid introductory reflections on the girl behind the girl who wrote Looking Back lend a new dimension to this iconic analysis of a generation. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Joyce Maynard including rare photos from the author’s personal collection.

I believe that these perspectives should be taught in accordance with the culture and traditions that are also very important in shaping a child's life. A child needs to know what culture he or she represents (no matter what culture you choose) and how things operate within that culture. I believe parenting is a huge part of every culture to provide every child with both nature and nurture they need. These two areas of life (the nature and nurture of a child) are not mutually exclusive as many regard them in this age; they both have to be happening together in the right way. Perhaps you are an immigrant or somebody who finds that life is giving you less than you expect... Did you struggle through your upbringing? Then this book is for you. Author Kemi Obayemi offers a real-life jaunt into her somewhat trying past. Find out how she finds the strength to lead a successful, happy life.

Old School is in session.... You have probably heard the term Old School, but what you might not know is that there is a concentrated effort to tear that school down. It’s a values thing. The anti–Old School forces believe the traditional way of looking at life is oppressive. Not inclusive. The Old School way may harbor microaggressions. Therefore, Old School philosophy must be diminished. Those crusading against Old School now have a name: Snowflakes. You may have seen them on cable TV whining about social injustice and income inequality. You may have heard them cheering Bernie Sanders as he suggested the government pay for almost everything. The Snowflake movement is proud and loud, and they don’t like Old School grads. So where are you in all this? Did you get up this morning knowing there are mountains to climb—and deciding how you are going to climb them? Do you show up on time? Do you still bend over to pick up a penny? If so, you’re Old School. Or did you wake up whining about safe spaces and trigger warnings? Do you feel marginalized by your college’s mascot? Do you look for something to get outraged about, every single day, so you can fire off a tweet defending your exquisitely precious sensibilities? Then you’re a Snowflake. So again, are you drifting frozen precipitation? Or do you matriculate at the Old School fountain of wisdom? This book will explain the looming confrontation so even the ladies on The View can understand it. Time to take a stand. Old School or Snowflake. Which will it be?
