Answer:

this isnt your para but might help you write one.

Explanation:

Children in the 1950s had very different lives to young people today. Most left school much earlier, with many starting work at 14, and far fewer people had the chance to go on to further education. Ordinary families had little spare money for treats like cinema trips and holidays.

The 1950s were a decade marked by the post-World War II boom, the dawn of the Cold War and the Civil Rights movement in the United States. ... For example, the nascent civil rights movement and the crusade against communism at home and abroad exposed the underlying divisions in American society.

During the 1950s, a sense of uniformity pervaded American society. Conformity was common, as young and old alike followed group norms rather than striking out on their own. Though men and women had been forced into new employment patterns during World War II, once the war was over, traditional roles were reaffirmed.

In the 1950s children often played games in the streets outside their houses. ... Children also played different types of games, with more simple toys. Instead of computer games, they had footballs, hula hoops, skipping ropes and cards.
