growing-up couple pain
The proliferation of support groups suggests to me that too many Americans are growing up in homes that do not contain a grandmother. A home without a grandmother is like an egg without salt....

We could eliminate much of the isolation that support groups exist to fill and save the "traditional family" that everybody is so worried about if more couples took their aging parents to live with them.

Imagine that for hundreds of years your most formative traumas, your daily suffering and pain, the abuse you live through, the terror you live with, are unspeakable not the basis of literature.

You develop a self who is ingratiating and obsequious and imitative and aggressively passive and silent you learn, in a word, femininity.
growing-up children people
We're growing up with a very illiterate bunch of children who have somehow been taught that film is fact when, in fact, it's invention.
