[QUOTE="Roundyfield, post: 7046132, member: 14845"] Balance is the key. The 80s was an enjoyable time to be a child but my father had a decent job and we owned our own house. We had no telephone, central heat, or cable television until 1986 or so. The house cost cost $7,000 to buy in 1978; however, many of my classmates were hungry, lacked basic services and had clear undiagnosed developmental issues. I loved going for walks with my father and brother in the Glen but there were teenagers sniffing glue all over the place after dark and unemployment was rampant. Today many people are priced out of the housing market and our consumerism has become uncontrollable. [/QUOTE]
