When I was your age...


I've been subbing at the Jr. High lately and I've noticed myself saying, "When I was your age..." a lot.
For example:
When I was your age, we weren't allowed to bring hand-held video games to school.
When I was your age, we weren't allowed to bring our walk-man's to class.
When I was your age, drawing a gun in art was a no-no.
When I was your age we had to be quite in homeroom.
When I was your age we weren't allowed to make ash-trays in art class.

It's a whole new experience at the school then when I went there, and I can't decide if it was better then or now.

I feel exactly the same way everytime I teach, but especially with the older kids.
