Do You Remember When...

• Your dealings with teenagers were when you are one and not when they are yours?? Is it one and the same thing or is it much..much..different... Do you go with..umphh..I don't think I ever said that if not one of my parents will sure hunt me down to silence...Were there anybody namely adults who will care for your actual feelings before imposing...
• Today..do you have to contemplate many times before actually propose anything to YOUR teenagers...

• Kids can walk down the streets or play in your front yard without fear of being snatched.. I remembered going to the wet market by bus when I was 12 and my sis 9 to get some fish and vegetables by instruction of my late mum and take a bus back home and walk a further 30mins or so to reach the house..Weren't there any fear?
• At 16 took a bus to Bahau from K.Klawang on my own and had to change bus twice..just to go for prize giving at my previous school..what were my parents thinking..he..he..
• Ahh..well..at less 18yrs... I was taking a flight to Illinois and thus my actual life journey began...
• At 19&1/2 I got married and at 20&1/2 my first child arrived and now..he's working..
• Gosh...just heard a friend's daughter will be getting married in Dec..she's 2 years younger than my son....

• I still have the Corning ware sets that I bought thru mail order for abt USD70..my first and only....my son was abt 1&1/2 years...I still have most of the 7 pieces with their covers..close to 24 years now.
