1968 – PARENTS’ LEAGUE – The Parents’ League was founded in 1968 to combat the “too much, too soon” pattern that had developed with regard to children, a byproduct of our affluent society. The Parents’ League promoted the ideas that the primary responsibility for children’s behavior begins and remains in the home; that parents have a responsibility to see that there is a wholesome community for their children; that youngsters’ social activities should be appropriate for their ages; and that families taking the same stand can work together for a better community.
