Nostalgia for the 1950s is real and deserves to be taken seriously, but it usually shouldn 't be taken literally. (pg.33 of What we really miss about the 1950’s)
Growing up in a two parent household who base their parenting abilities on what the Bible has to say, can relate a lot to being in the 1950s. It has a lot of the same values work hard, love unconditionally, and don 't sin. Today’s society with all the electronics that we have makes it very difficult to get tasks accomplished. My parents have stressed in all of us kids to work hard for what we want. That they will help us get to that point but once we are on our own then they will step back and let us make all the choices that affect our lives.

Am I saying that there will not be any hard trials, no absolutely not. When doing the right thing challenges will always seep through. This world does not have much of these values nowadays and when there are a few that have these qualities they outshine the rest of them, and tend to go farther in life. They have more ambitions for themselves because they have a taste of what success really is. Also people that are not raised with these values still have a great chance at thriving it will just take a lot of passion and grit to beat the flesh of what they were raised as.

I know many friends that are in a single parent family which is very hard nowadays to maintain a job as well as care for their children.
Something also to keep in mind is racial values I know that my very good friends from church that are colored have a lot different lifestyle compared to myself. For example their parents do not put up with anything, and I mean any nonsense. They call their elders by sir and ma’am because if the parents hear anything other than that it is disrespectful. Over all everyone has a different set of family values in their life. God made many different personalities for a reason because without differences we would all be robots.
I am so grateful to know so many different ways of family values that I can not wait to make my own family values for my kids. So that they hopefully turn into well mannered children that are respected in the community because they treat everyone with respect. I think one major family value that I think every family revolves around is respectfulness. It goes to show how “treat others the way you want to be treated” really goes for
