Have mercy! Girls in shorts and jeans

Things have really changed over the years.

In the late 1940s and 1950s, there were a lot of things that little girls or should I say little ladies were cautioned not to do. While boys were free to do almost anything, girls were reminded to act like a lady. Girls wore dresses and played school and played house. They were not supposed to climb trees, as they were not dressed appropriately for that, according to their mothers and others.
