Growing Up in Boom Times Chris Brockman

Even as we Baby Boomers have put our stamp on our world, our growing up has had a profound effect on us. We rebelled, protested, turned on. We bridged the simplicity of our parents' youth and the beguiling complexity of our own children's. Before all that, though, we played outside a lot and without fear, we ate dinner at home with our families, we found good things to watch on our three or four T. V. channels, and we managed to have great fun close to home with just our bikes, our dogs, and our friends.
