Voters between the ages of 50 and 64 were most likely to choose the 1950s, the decade in which they themselves came to age, as the best time for kids; voters under 30 were more likely to choose the 1970s” ( ). This poll reminds me the other poll “When researcher shows and provides new technology to teenagers , they said the new technology is cool or awesome and show their curiosity.

In one of these videos, Michael’s dad describes Christmas Eve. He says, “Some of their ideas are different, like there’s no manger or bright star or anything, and it’s just Mary without her Joseph in their version, but we just set all that aside and worshipped God.
