Yes, maybe people were less materialistic. I think
they bought things that
lasted longer; my grandparents talk about how they repaired things rather
than throwing them away. Maybe brands and advertising weren't
as powerful
as they are now.
Talking about toys
1. Do you think it's important for boys to play with "boys' toys" and for girls
to only play with "girls' toys"?
I think boys naturally seem to prefer playing with "boys' toys" and girls with
"girls' toys". When I was
young I had toy cars, trucks, guns and things like that,
whereas my sister always wanted to play with dolls. I don't
suppose it really
matters if a boy plays with a doll or a girl plays with a toy car,
but children learn
quickly what toys are supposed to be for boys and for girls.
