Now that everyone around me is popping babies like there is no tomorrow, and I guess that’s the natural circle of life, and the normal progression of my generation is to reproduce, however, one cannot help but notice how these newly “devoted” parents are completely acting like insane maniacs.
I understand that our generation was brought up with somewhat tough circumstances, I mean back then, most parents thought second hand smoking will strengthen the lungs and maybe cure a child’s asthma, when whiskey was an appropriate desensitizer, and most families considered the space between the backseat and the back windshield a legitimate seat for the smallest family member, who is almost always just a little bit beyond infancy age; even the lap of the driver at times was also considered as a suitable space for those kids who are able to steer the car responsibly, while the driver is trying to light up a cigarette from the car lighter, more than often it would be dropped on the car’s floor and the entire residents of the car will start looking for it so the car won’t catch on fire, mind you the responsible steering kid is not part of the searching squad , hence his duty to begin with.
