There was no general opportunity for adolescent boys and girls to get to know each other in our closed and traditional society in the years between 1959 and 1963, when these events were in process. Families were not expected to be all open-minded and give their sons and daughters the freedom to choose their own love. They tried to marry off their daughter as soon as possible to a boy from their family, such as a cousin, or to the son of their business partner, to prevent her from spoiling and fooling around. Beautiful girls were courted and taken away at a very young age. Most of the time, the partner had to be approved by the parents in the first place. The girl's decision came second. At the same time, in Europe, in order for young people to get to know each other, classical and modern dance classes and competitions, weekend gatherings, and group picnics were arranged. Then, the opening of various discotheques followed. One of these possibilities for boys and girls to get to know each other, outside of family restrictions, was on the way to school, which is the main topic of this book.
