I grew up Reading Comic Books

Growing up, reading Comic books was my favorite thing to do. I read the Donald Duck series with Dagobert Duck, Donald's rich and greedy uncle and his nephews Tuck, Tick and Track. Then there were the bad guys always trying to steal from someone. Donald was always broke yet his uncle hardly ever helped him.

I also read Mickey Mouse comics occasionally. Later on there were more advanced comics s.a. Superman etc

I got my comic magazines and paperbacks from the corner store. They were my escape from reality. 

There was a man, a friend of my parents who came to visit, he worked for the comic book printing company in town noand he often brought a box of newly printed comics and I was so happy about that. It was better than Christmas to me to get those comics. 

There also was the Asterix comic series which was also fun to read. It is a French comic.

There also was a series of mystery comics and I loved those. They transformed me into another world forgetting my problems like with homework, chores, etc.

I also watched TV and TV was new to us in the late 1960s.

Yuck. I have seen a neighbor's chicken that was bullied by the bunch & I yelled at the bully chickens. It didn't help. True story. A bullied chicken loses all its feathers as it is being picked on until death. It is as if Hitchcock's bird movie became true. My neighbors no longer have chickens. One neighbor's chickens got killed by wildlife, the others by dogs. So sad that chickens can't be kind to each other and share their food politely. This means majority chickens are greedy & selfish. We don't live in the country, we live in the city...

Distractions affect Parenting Negatively

😭 I read a very sad true story on People magazine on Facebook concerning the dangers in parenting. I won't mention names but you can look up the names if you want to know them. An influencer who had many followers on a social platform online had a terrible tragedy happen to her and her family. The influencer had several children and one of them is a 22 month old toddler. One day the toddler decided to roam around as little toddler boys usually do. He had a cup with a suction holder on his cup. He spotted a large mirror and he attached his suction cup to this mirror. The family had a dog and this dog had an accident where this large mirror was usually located. In order to remove the pet stain the family had moved the large mirror to be able to clean the stain successfully and the temporary location of the moved mirror was where the toddler attached his suction cup. So as the little boy attached the suction cup this large mirror fell on top of him. The mother heard the crash and ran...
