Free To Be... You And Me - Part 15 of 17

I think if people raised their kids to call ALL adults, "Ma'am" and "Sir" kids would learn respect and be SHOWN respect back. We have a bunch of hoodlums (of all races/demographics) it seems that don't know how to dress, speak, or behave. I grew up in a very strict household and I am actually jealous of one of my cousins who calls her father (even as an adult) "Sir" still. I think that is so cool. Never occurred to me to call my father that and too little too late at my age, I guess. too bad.

No, children should be raised to call people what they want to be called. That is what respect is.

what choo gon' wish?

tee hee.

VICTORIOUS?!?!?! hahaahhaha i should try naming my kid that name when i grow up :D

oh wow this is so sweet and wonderful. i gotta get this dvd. <3

it looks like arthur the reject neighborhood. The music sounds similiar too.

I'd wish for several billion dollars then I could buy all the friends I wanted!

Kids had more respect for their parents back then. Good example :56

I wish that Obama would pay my rent, my car payment, and my groceries!

*POOF*..you're still poor and living in the ghetto...life sucks doesn't it.

Aww. This makes me so sad. I was so happy to find these, b/c I remember listening to this album when I was a kid. I remember sitting in the back of my mom's car when I was6 and we got a flat tire on the freeway, and she changed it all by herself, and I said "My mommy can do anything a man can do!" (which I am sure was courtesy of "Parents are People"). Its sad that a record that was so progressive in terms of showing non-traditional female images had SUCH a characature of black people. Sad. :-(
