But I think that generation, that generation had probably

a more straightforward education into what the realities of the world are.

Things weren't obscured by social media or by the distance that we have.

When I said that my dad said that with a smile on his face, it was because I have to make sure he didn't take me to the side and have a Huxtable Theo conversation.
