In the 1980’s when I decided that I wanted kids, I never thought I would have to talk with them about the current topics/trends of the day. The Confederate Flag, racism, bleaching dark skin to look lighter, changing eye color, injecting butts to make them bigger, inserting artificial pecks to make the chest larger, same sex marriage, men changing into women, women changing into men, strippers becoming First Ladies, and the all the variations in between!
Whoa, slow down world! There's just too much happening! My daughters are now grown women and as we sit to talk about life ever so often, I am sometimes left to respond to their inquiries with an "I don't know" statement. What do I tell my daughters about what's happening in 2015? We no longer live in a world where the statement "that's the way it is" has quite the meaning it usually has! The world where my parents and grandparents said, “that’s just the way it is!’ and we believed them, no longer exists. Today all ‘envelopes” are not just being strategically opened, they are being ripped with evidence of scar tissue left in place.
