See, folklore is actually forgotten for a global society?

Question

As a child I learned songs, tales, miths and uses of comom sens. But today I do not listen not even read about such things as legends and children songs of play. I think people erased their cultures because market ideologizes them to sell things.

Answer 1

That's sad you feel that way.I try to keep legends and stories alive for my kids. I even make stories up for bed time just like my dad did for me...even my oldest will listen when I tell my youngest a bed time story---she is 20 yrs old --I cant help it life is supposed to be fun and bed time is the last fun of the day.

Answer 2

That's because people have replaced the old superstitions with new ones. Like when I went to the store tonight and the girl behind the counter was saying to her friend how desperate she was for a 'psychic' reading because she's been having weird dreams.

Answer 3

true &I havent seen a hanging in forever

Answer 4

I think the removal or extermination of legends and folklore is what makes our world so plain. Ideologically, perhaps, to some.
