Ah yes, The City of Cinncinatti OH. says it is BAD to say the word "hillbilly" . Now since I are one; I can see no harm in the word. I have not been traumatized by it, nor do I know anyone who has. Maybe that means I'm a "self hating hillbilly"-Or a Wassist!!---Ray
That is the honest to God truth. My wife and I are in our mid 60's (I am, she's "pushing it" -- I say out of fear since she's glaring over my shoulder) and have over the years become surrogate grandparents to a lot of the young neighborhood kids -- with the parents blessings (and in some cases pushing to get them out of their own homes!).
We are stunned at the amount of kids on behavior modifying drugs, with some on multiple prescriptions. All the vast majority -- all of the ones we personally know -- don't need drugs or politically correct and applied parental guidelines, they just need a sharing of time, friendship and respect.
You don't prefer Appalachian American? haha. I had a six shooter and the whole cowboy get up. And my son will also have a six shooter. If you actually are a responsible parent than it can be an early teaching tool.
