It's a Wonder We Survived: The Wild World of Parenting Through the Decades

Get ready for a hilarious (and slightly terrifying) trip down memory lane with this collection of photos and anecdotes is a testament to the jaw-droppingly reckless, yet somehow endearing, parenting practices of yesteryears. From toddlers riding bears for fun to entire families perched atop a speeding car, the past was a no-holds-barred adventure in child-rearing.

As we journey through these laugh-out-loud examples, you'll marvel at how we made it through childhood with nothing but a few scratches (and maybe a couple of questionable life lessons). Did your parents let you sample beer at the ripe old age of three? Or perhaps they thought seatbelts were just fancy decorations? Whatever the case, this listicle is a tribute to the wild, wacky, and wonderfully carefree days of parenting in the past. So sit back, relax (but not too much, safety first!), and enjoy a nostalgic chuckle at the good old days.
